differences in the entry: Description
[p]Most of the stuff works out of the box including 3D and wifi. The [b]only problem[/b] I found was with the blue Fn buttons when changing the screen brightness and it was [b]easy to fix[/b]. The screen brightness didn't change in order from dimm to bright when using the Fn buttons. It changed randomly.[/p]
[p]To fix the problem, just modify your [i]/etc/default/grub[/i] configuration file
to include [i]acpi_osi=Linux[/i] parameter on the [i]GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT [/i]
line. So, if it looks like this:[/p]
[code]GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"[/code]
[p]Make it look like this:[/p]
[code]GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux"[/code]
[p]After [p]Reboot and after that it should work perfectly.[/p]
[p]Now, here is some info about the integrated web camera:[/p]
