I wonder if anyone is using this laptop and what version of Ubuntu is 
installed.
My brother installed 11.04 on his but could not launch apps such as 
libreoffice and others.
Yesterday with the help of an expert as he described him spent 2 hours 
trying to get it working and failed, so he reinstalled Windows 7 but 
would really like to get Ubuntu working. Internet access and skype 
worked, but a bunch of other stuff failed to launch.
Regards
Sid.
