The VESA driver will not support compiz-fusion but the Nvida propriatory driver works great.:popcorn:

After getting the machine running with VESA driver running the ENVY application will install the Nvidia drivers and will work. NVidia Quadro FX 570m - WORKING / Propriatory Drivers Optimal - Doing an install with VESA driver selected will work, the packaged nv driver will not start. Wiping Vista and Thinkvantage off altogether works the best! :twisted:Vista will only use 3gb ram. Windows Vista 32bit Ulitmate pre-install - WORKING /PART - Re-sizing vista works from within Vista BUT still takes up 100gb disk space + ThinkVantage Utility Partition. Intel Core 2 Duo (Penryn) 2.6ghz - WORKING both CPU cores / Power Management. (I do wish I had the 4GB of memory they accidentally installed in the first machine, but maybe that was part of the problem.)
In short, looks like a success story after the first couple of days. One moment of panic came when I looked at the output from `cat /proc/cpuinfo` which gave bogomips of only 2000 per CPU (running at 1GHz) but with a little research I found that this is just the energy saving feature preventing the system from using more juice than is necessary when you're not asking it to do any real work. Wireless has a little hum if the sound is turned up, but I don't plan to use the wireless on this system anyway. Graphics came right up into the monitor's native 1920x1200, sound worked perfectly, wireless worked without any hand-holding whatsover (other than plugging in the WEP key), DVD burner worked flawlessly. Smoothest installation of any operating system I've ever installed. Took it back to the store, swapped it for another of the same model and started over. So after a couple of days going back and forth with HP support, I decided the machine must be a lemon. I tried falling back on upgrading my current Windows XP workstation to Ubuntu and using the new machine as my Windows system, but that would have boxed me into the corner of having to use the Vista that came installed on the machine instead of XP, and besides, things weren't working well in Windows, either. Ubuntu 8.04/i386 (not brave enough yet for the 64-bit)įirst attempt didn't get past pressing Enter to start the install process: just hung there with a black screen and a cursor blinking in the upper left corner.
