You can see on the page for the system which components the system used for certification contains. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/000000-0000:000000-0000 What is worrying to see though is that you say the Ethernet doesn't work, though the certified system uses the exact same component. I'll have to check that out. FAQ #0000: "Where can I get the list of components for a particular model?". Despite your protestations, this system isn't certified with an NVidia card.

Unfortunately we have not certified any systems containing that particular nVidia card, and so cannot state whether it will work with Ubuntu.
