Let me start by saying the Ubuntu is my favorite distribution but the
hardware support is terrible. First I bought a  sony vaio VGC-RA830G
but it's impossible to install
hoary on it while installing fedora is a breeze. Bug 7213 which
affects my sony machine been open for 2 month now. I got the
impression that my hardware is not common enough to be a top priority
which is understandable.
        
So i bought a monarch ultimate linux box which comes with components
that work on linux and now I am affected with the following bug
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2710. Again fedora and
gentoo work on the machine. Now, ubuntu not working on this machine
isn't understandable.
