Am using the same model because my girlfriend has the same one. Am using Ubuntu 11.04 100% RELEASE EDITION not BETA. It is working perfect so i highly recommend to install Ubuntu 11.04 which was released already. Do not update from Beta to Final Release just to avoid any problem, Just install it from scratch.

@izx While it's not necessarily always wrong to comment with a link, link-only answers really aren't comments and shouldn't usually exist as comments. A comment cannot be expanded, edited to fix a broken link, or voted on. Instead, as Stephen Myall has said, this is an answer that would be much better if it included more information than just a link. Sometimes a link-only answer should be removed, but it would only make sense for it to be a comment if the linked page doesn't answer the question but is somehow still valuable. – Eliah Kagan Sep 03 '12 at 11:49
