Mint Linux 10 live dvd running now, screen working like a dream, tho no tablet button functions. and no recognion that the screen has entere tablet mode, (no gyro either)
alt pen button working!
give it a try, lie version, so nothing to lose
Same here, Ubuntu is fantastic on my Tecra M7, the only things that don't seem to work yet are the tablet function, like Alec said, and the fingerprint, but for that it would need an application, I suppose. Other than that, I'm impressed.
After installing the most recent Ubuntu boot, my Tecra M7 has run like a dream. Battery duration has nearly doubled, everything worked from the get-go except the tablet screen, and almost no major hangups yet. If you don't mind missing the Tablet function, the Tecra runs far better under Ubuntu than Windows.
