2.42GHz, 2GB RAM, 32GB Storage, WLAN, BT, Webcam, Integrated
Graphics, Google Chrome)</a>, and I've installed ubuntu 12.04 via
crouton (see, e.g.,
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lifehacker.com/how-to-install-linux-on-a-chromebook-and-unlock-its-ful-509039343">http://lifehacker.com/how-to-install-linux-on-a-chromebook-and-unlock-its-ful-509039343</a>).<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any ideas as to whether a mythtv frontend might
work ok? I'm only recording SD on my backend, and I have a frontend
already working on a very underpowered old laptop, and the new
Chromebook seems much faster and you tube videos etc seem to work
fine on it. But as is, the ubuntu install is very minimal, and I
don't want to go to the effort of installing it and configuring it
only to find out a few hours down the line that it was never going
to work. Thanks if someone can help or point me in the right
direction!<br>

Slightly cut down lshw and lspci output follows in case that helps.<br>
