What would be the version of the display panel? There is quite a bit of difference between this panel (which is said to be B140XW03, without further specification) and, say, the B140XW03 V1 of the Thinkpad E420s...
Good and consicely.
I have the same Acer Aspire V5 471G with i3, 1GB graphic .. And i have tried installing Linux OS like Mint, Zorin, fedora, open SUSE, Ubuntu ..but i could not shutdown in any Linux instead it gets restart. But in in windows 8 it works fine only the problems is it couldn't resume after hibernation...
and it has poor backup.. i couldn't even watch a movie longer than 2.5 hours......

I bought this unit seven months ago. But nowadays I have been facing problem with the touchpad.The multi touch works fine but scrolling is a problem. When I scroll down the cursor automatically goes up at top of page. Please help
I have this model since 2013, I would say everything is great about this laptop, except the fan become noisy even after I removed the dust, and the battery life had been very short since the day I bought it. it will only last for about 2 hours or so
