I have a question…
i`ve got this notebook as a gift, but i can change it for a better one payin the money difference. My budget is really low, but i want to know if this notebook will run World of Warcraft (it´s my only vice lol)
The notebook comes with:
Celeron P550 2.0GHz (no dual core)

Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator X3100

hi kevin,
the brightness hotkey works perfectly on mine -installed with ubuntu 8.10. I didn’t need to tweak te setting or something like that, just out of the box. I just need to press either lower/brighter lamp plus the [f] function key to make it works. Or perhaps this is an XP specific problem, then.

this notebook is better than 530 hp because I have the same 530 hp and is very slow and less video card, ram and space

Hi biawak, I just got one of these today and done just the same as you, Vista lasted about 20 minutes on mine too.
One question, I can’t get the hot keys for the brightness to work, do they work on yours?
