Hallo to all of you guys! I love the linux - way of thinking but i would like to share my thoughts about the distro for this laptop. As the thread states i have an hp probook 4710s running opensuse 12.2. As for hardware compatibility i have to say that everything work fine. I am not the finest programmer but i can install the ati driver without the one click install. The same goes for video and audio codecs. After using for my everyday courses for about 1 year (12.1-12.2), i switch back to Windows 7. The main reason is the Holly(!) high temperature!!! I fed-up having a laptop that i canoot use it without ac for 60 minutes(!). I am using draftsight for autocad drawnings and recently i notice run lagging. I use EVERYTHING to lower my temperature (ACPI , PCIE_ASPM, pm-profiles, etc) and i spoke to anyone for a solution, but it doesn't go below 70 degrees. So maybe i should say bye-bye to my Ati card. I was keen on with the whole project. I was volunteer for many rpms but as i said i am very disappointed. I think that the main developers should reconsider the aim of the community to give a solution to this. Implementing Jupiter or anything else to reach a temperature of 70-80 degrees will push many users back to windows.
