Acer aspire v3 771G ubuntu 13.04
- by Jos
Gooday, i have this acer and i have alot of boot problems (i suspect windows 8)
and now i want to try ubuntu but when i use an usb to "try" ubuntu after the boot i get a black screen.
now ive read some of the forums and i found something about NOMODESET i have not tried this as i dont know what this does exactly.
now i have found this wiki entry https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee , i am by far no programmer and always reading all those commands have always kept me of linux because im scared i will !@#$ things up.
is there anyway i can go to NOMODESET in the ubuntu "trial" and can i also include the bumblebee futures (coding?) and in how many ways wil this affect my laptops perfomance?
reading the bumblebee entry its seems to be something about nvidia optimus and i dont reallt care much for the power saving, but will it affect any performance?
im not a heavy pc gamer but i like tho do some gaming and streaming and such also on a rather big TV in wich this laptop already has it flaws in some games not running properly on 65"
if this doesn't work or u advise me not to do this what else can i do to fix windows 8 or either some other linux version?
i thankyou in advance
