[SOLVED] Help! I cannot bear Win 8.1 - Installing LL 2.2 on Lenovo U530?
#45
Ok Update! You guys are freakin' amazing! <3 <3 <3

As of last night, I've dual booted in UEFI mode Linux and Windows 8.1 on my Lenovo U530, AND the Broadcom site needs an update, because installing the bcmwl-kernel-source package instantly fixed my wireless issue! Smile

Now here's the cliffhanger, I haven't restarted since then, so there is still a chance it may have issues/disappear/turn into a flying spaghetti monster when I boot up again, but crossing my fingers that won't happen.

The only thing I've yet to do so far is install my graphics drivers. Currently inxi -G is showing:

Graphics:  Card: Intel Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller
          X.Org: 1.15.1 drivers: intel (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) FAILED: nouveau Resolution: [email protected]
          GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel Haswell Mobile GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 10.1.3

I've got an Nvidia GT730M Driver ver 327.62, going to poke around and see if I can't get this last bit installed ok Smile

Thanks again everyone! Will update with results!
