advices regarding a HP ProBook 4530s

Hi,

I'll have a HP ProBook 4530s soon and need your advices since I've never had a laptop before.
It has a Radeon HD 6490M what driver do you suggest?
Are there laptop specific packages I should install?
And anything you can think of.

Thanks in advance.

PS: of course I read the wiki

What did you read on the wiki? The quoted question makes me think you may have somehow missed the laptop article.

You need to install an RTFM interface.
