Subject: [gentoo-user] intel HD graphics 4000 and viewing DVDs
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2012 16:10:30 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yu9ipd9t16x.fsf@nyu.edu> (raw)

I am getting a new laptop. (likely dell 6430).
The two graphics options are intel HD 4000 and nvidia NVS 5200M.
Dell is as expected suggesting the 5200M.

I do not need 3D or fast response.  Dell hinted that DVDs might not play
with the intel HD 4000.  This seems weird to me as the 4000 is supposed
to be a big improvement over the 3000 and I can't believe dell or others
would have sold laptops that can't play dvds

Any comments or experiences?

thanks,
allan
