Revision as of 20:27, 14 June 2011

This is not necessarily something that we support, but seeing as I have an HP TouchSmart tm2t, I figured that I would post some of the experiences I have had here and some of the fixes that work.

Hardware

I will flesh out this list more later, but my computer's hardware is:

  • CPU: Intel Core i5-430UM
  • RAM: 4096 MB
  • HDD: Hitachi HTS725050A9A364 500GB
  • VGA1: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
  • VGA2: ATI Mobility HD5450

If I neglected something that you feel is important, please post on the discussion page.

Flash Video

Do not use the 64-bit flash, no matter what version of the OS you are running. Instead, use the 32-bit version that you can download either from Synaptic (through the flashplugin-installer). If you experience slow performance with flash videos, right click on it, go to "Settings..." and disable hardware acceleration. This appears to be an error where it slows down because it's trying to use the Intel Integrated Graphics and failing.
