Ubuntu on the Sony VAIO VGN-FS series of laptops

  • Welcome to Ubuntu-FS..

    I'm currently trying to get my VGN-FS251E working perfectly with Ubuntu GNU/Linux. I thought that it might be easier for others facing the same problem, if I document all of the useful info that I find. I also thought that it would be a good way to give something back to the GNU/Linux community.

In a perfect world your Sony FS laptop would run any Linux distro without hassle.. Unfortunatly this isn't a perfect world & most of us are stuck with having to dual boot between our distro of choice & Windows.

This software could make you feel a little better about booting into your Windows partition though, as it can make your boring Windows install look like themeable MacOS. All your dedicated Sony programs should still fully work, but they will be re-skinned to fit into the MacOS desktop.

Not had chance to try it (yet), but the reviews on the Sony forum's have been very interesting reading.

***WARNING*** You might have problems on multi-user installs!
