http://ubuntuforums.org – I'm looking at buying a Dell Inspiron 1564, and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? If this would be a bad choice of laptop hardware, could anyone suggest a more Ubuntu-friendly one? (Hardware)

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to get BT5 installed of my Dell Inspiron 1564 - but have had a number of problems. I have used previous versions of BT for several years, but I am not a Linux expert....I rely heavily on these forums for fixes.

I have tried both BT5 64bit Gnome and BT5 64bit KDE. I can get both installed, but with Gnome my sound doesnt work.

First of all, I am not a geek and I am totally new to Linux. I want to try Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS on my Dell Inspiron 15R laptop. So I want to know whether the hardware of the laptop is compatible with Ubuntu and they'll just work with Ubuntu as fine as they work with Windows 7. Following are my hardware specs as I found. Can any one tell me, will they work fine and the machine will run smoothly?
