Laptop Adventures

By ymra

Income Tax time has come and gone.  Out of my income tax I purchased an Acer Aspire ONE  Running Windows XP.  Since I have that I decided that the Aspire 3680 could become a test machine.  I backed it up and ran the restore.  I then deleted the D drive and used space It had occupied to install Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope.  It took several tries to get it right but it is now up and running.  The wireless (Broadcom) works  pretty much out of the box.   I had to use the restricted drivers manager to get it working but that was no big deal since the drivers were on the install cd.
