    I'm about to use multi-boot, one for Win7 as main and linux as secondary.
    I tried Ubuntu 9.10, 10.04 and Fedora 12 but all the temperature of laptop running with linux is always high and fan are running crazy.
    How can I resolve this problem?

    Any other problems with linux?

    Does sleep/suspend, wireless, gpu/graphics, webcam, etc. all work in linux?

    i didn't tested all above but the sleep/suspent, wireless works well.
    I'm not sure about graphics but the resolution works correctly.
    But the sound doen't work.
