[Discuss] Ubuntu Install Question



Dear Linux Group,

Background:
Friend of mine upgraded PC with new motherboard and RAM some time ago and
could not install Ubuntu due to some conflicts with hardware.

I am just about to buy a laptop with the following spec. Do you see any
problems/conflicts  installing Ubuntu on this machine as dual boot ? Is
there a way to check it beforehand ?

   - Intel Core i7-8750H Processor 2.2GHz
   - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Graphics 6GB GDDR5
   - 16GB RAM
   - 1TB HDD+256GB SSD
   - Microsoft Windows 10 Home
   - Multi-Format Digital Media Card Reader
   - 10/100/1000 Network
   - 2x2 Intel Wireless-AC 9560
   - Bluetooth 5.0 Combo
   - 15.6" Full HD IPS Anti-Glare Micro-Edge WLED-backlit Display

Best,
Ivan
