[Abandoned] ubuntu on G9-591 - Answer: Not really

beststevie

Yes, I can understand that your're . But here I must say, I remember well an article regarding UEFI and TPM. There was a sentence like "now every manufacturer has it in its hands, which OSes will be compatible".

 

But as I used dual boot systems for many years, I already gave up with UEFI. The Asus I had was running dual boot for some months and then the Bios was completely bricked (3 time while working). No others had this error....but also not dual boot.

 

I used Win10 only for gaming before.

 

But you should go to the forums before you buy the next one. Because I think the chipsets are very equal for skylake notebooks. So also the problems ...

I just waited for Ubuntu 16.04 to try again my best with dual boot win10/Ubuntu.

 

It was still the same as before.

 

But I found out how it works. It might be different for every different storage setup. I do have 2 M2 SSDs and the sata hdd. On Nvme is the win10.

 

I had a free space at the end of the sata ssd and set it as the 1rst boot device. I disabled secure boot and installed Ubuntu on the Sata SSD with boot loader on it, too. Then after reboot I couldn't see the boot manager as before. I setup secure boot and found an option to trust an efi file. I clicked though and a gave this fresh boot devcie the name ubuntu.

 

Option is found under securtiy>select an UEFI file as trusted

 

In boot menue I set this new option to the top.

 

I use AHCI and I also can boot win10 with raid. But I dind't try to setup Ubuntu with raid optin. But it should work as well.

 

That's it.

 

If someone found an solution for Killer Wireless and the bad sound...please let me know.

But I'm a bit about this fresh ubuntu.

 

- Sound is not correctly recognized. Only speaker to the left are working.

- No wlan. Workaround is not working for me.
