Comment 193 for bug 1040557

@ Fabio: I installed ubuntu 12.04 in the uefi way and it still works (for more info see post #128). I guess you don't need the daily image, if you use 12.04.2, because it already has the patched kernel.
I find it strange, though, that your computer bricked, since I thought that the 13.04 kernels do not call samsung-laptop anymore and so avoiding the bricking problem. I know that 12.10 is not save to install, because there was no updated kernel for the installation image, but that you should be able to upgrade to it.
Did you do a bios upgrade before you installed ubuntu?
