8.04?

[Victor Sterpu]

For desktop use Ubuntu is great.

I used a laptop for a few weeks and I had a bad surprise.

It works good only with Vista because only Vista knows how to cool it 
properly.


I tryed XP, Ubuntu 7.10, 8 alpha and Vista and only Vista knows how to 
cool it properly.

The laptop is a Toshiba and this is a fact that I found it on a Toshiba 
forum.


It is weired how Toshiba chooses to promote Vista.

lm-sensors can't find the cpu fan and the temperature is 100 degrees 
celsius.

So I had to quit using Ubuntu on that laptop. : (

Toshiba will deffenetly not be my choice for a laptop.
