Hi and happy new year.
I haven't read any posts for a while so I have probably missed useful info, however....
Can any one help with installing Ubuntu 12.10 on a new laptop with this UEFI bios thing. I have googled and googled and tried and tried, but have failed. Problems include:

Ubuntu does not see Windoze as OS
Boot laoder does not work.
I think ubuntu is installed but I can't run her.

What has Mr Gates done?

Aaron - I'm not 100% sure but I think you have to a special signed version of the bootloader to run under UEFI Once you've got that you can run anything!!!!
Once you google for UEFI bootloaders you should be inundated with possible solutions!
