Ubuntu – Compatibility of Linux with Samsung series 7 Chronos

I want to buy a Samsung Chronos notebook and install Ubuntu alongside Windows.

Will there be any trouble with the hardware? I’d hope all the ports should work fine, keyboard special buttons, lights on the keyboard, the fast boot technology (wake from hibernation in a few seconds), etc.

Solution:

The best buy one I have didn’t come with fast boot or back light keyboard. Ubuntu 11.10 works great on it with one issue. The touch pad can not scroll. ElanTech touch pad in the Samsung works to move and click mouse but it doesn’t scroll. i’ve been looking for a while how to fix the problem. if and When i come across it I will share with the world.
