Cedar trail / Intel N2600 ...
« on: February 21, 2014, 02:30:49 PM »
My school just bougth some new laptops, and the hardware is really bad.
After trying ubermix 1.4, the performance is horrible. Couldn't install the propietary drivers, and a lot of problems (really slow performance, no brigthness, etc etc).
Is it worth to use it with new ubermix versions? 
Thanks
Juan

Did you just buy Cedartrail netbooks? Which model? Make sure you do the Cedartrail fix http://wiki.ubermix.org/page/Cedar_Trail_Devices for the video, and the brightness fix should work.

All the netbooks being sold in my country are based on Intel N2600, so it was the only hardware available.
Everything is slower....boot times, shutdown time, UI performance. Cannot believe that a bad driver hurts so much a new chipset.
The fix must be applied to the latest version of ubermix ? or i must choose the old one that gives me the best performance ?
Thanks
Juan

They are pretty sluggish, but the fix will help. Necessary on all versions as it sets up xorg.conf to use a more proper driver.
