The rest is normal! I can report that Fedora is running like a dream, and that I did have issues with the Nvidia card.

send me a Tweet at @kmf if you have questions about the Laptop.

Disclaimer: I don’t use Windows, it’s not even on it. So I can’t answer any questions about it. Sorry.

Fedora 21

Standard

Loving it. Really.

GNOME 3.14, makes me happy!
