Discussion
Just want to let people know that I am currently running Ubuntu 11.04 on Asus UL20FT. Everything worked immediately after installation of Ubuntu. The only exception is that the headphone did not work until I edited /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and added “options snd-hda-intel model=auto” at the end. After reboot, the headphone also worked.
