Laptop: Sony VAIO VPC-EB32FM
CPU: Intel Pentium P6100 @2.0GHz // 4096MB RAM
Screen: 1366x768 //15.5” LED display (Nothing special)
HDD: Stock 320GB HDD (5400rpm) *Hitachi, Currently theres a 80Gb Hitachi with Ubuntu (Latest build)
Graphics:Not 100% sure, i've looked and can only deduce its an Intel Based basic GPU
Network: B/G/N wifi, Atheros AR9285
Sound: Seems to be a Realtek ALC269
I realize its prob not easy to do, i've tried a lot, yet cant seem to get it working properly, I know now that kalyway 10.5.2 works, but no sound, wifi, ethernet or battery. I think Iatkos 4I sort of worked but would have this reboot loop.
If anyone has any suggestions on where to go from here i'd love to know, thank you all for reading and any of your time.
