I did install Ubuntu 13.04 single boot in UEFI modus on a Samsung 900X3E- A03. For installation only i did deactivate "Fast boot" at the bios menu. Since than its activated again.

- WiFi
- Speakers, microphone, audio out
- Both USB
- Webcam
- Bluetooth
- Function keys: Touchpad on/off, Mute, Volume +/-, switch screen, screen backlights
- Battery status
- SD card reader
- Video works after kernel update to 3.8.0-31 (no horizontal black lines anymore)
- Screen backlights: At some boots monitor is very dark. Adjustment with FN keys for screen backlight possible each time
- Touchpad
- HDMI working with exernal monitor but switches off with tv after start of videos
- keybord backlights, there are none at all
- Function keys: Settings = FN F1, Fan control, Wifi on/off
Untested:
- Suspend on lid-close
- Suspend/hibernate
- Ambient light sensor
- Gigabit ethernet
Fixes:
- Touchpad thanks to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2111236 and https://launchpadlibrarian.net/14242...sions-v7.patch i did the following steps in the terminal:
cd /usr/src/ sudo dkms remove psmouse/elantech-v6 --all sudo wget http://www.ouam.fr/~madko/ubuntu/elantech/psmouse-elantech-v7.tar.bz2 sudo tar jxvf psmouse-elantech-v7.tar.bz2 sudo dkms add -m psmouse -v elantech-v7 sudo dkms build -m psmouse -v elantech-v7 sudo dkms install -m psmouse -v elantech-v7 reboot
That did not make the "Disable touchpad while writing" in the settings work. Fix with syndaemon in the auto start, see end of this page: http://ubuntuwiki.net/index.php/Touchpad,_disabling_while_typing
- Dark screen at some boots: Fix with xbacklight -set 80 at the auto start. You can chose 80% like me or any other value
