Hi all Thank you Phil and Tony for the suggestions which look very interesting.
I also wonder if the BIOS needs updating. Unfortunately HP seem only to let you do this from Windows, which is strange considering this is a Ubuntu original installation. I did find this link which if correct means it is possible to load LM17.1: http://www.linlap.com/hp_250_g1 I have arranged to pick up the laptop on Sunday and will do what I can to get LM17.1 working before the LUG meeting but if I have no success I will take the opportunity to bring it along for a collective think.
