Discussion
I have this laptop and it runs under Xubuntu 12.04. Mint runs also and certainly Ubuntu and Kubuntu. I failed to install Suse. It was not posssible to install it from CD, but a boot stick works properly.
Hint: ACPI has to be disabled.
This is really a great device and “Made in Germany”. Display is excellent and the noise level very low. Bumblebee works as well.
Linux is simply unusable with this laptop.
I tried many different distributions and the laptop simlpy can't boot any of the installation media. The Problem lays in the SATA-Controller. Somehow it can boot iff I deactivate the SATA-Controller in the BIOS-Setup. However, then you can't install the distribution because there is no hard drive available :D
Note: The Problem is really the SATA-controller, not the AHCI-option.
