I have an Inspiron 8500 and it worked with 8.2 as well as 9.0. Only problem with the video (Nvidia) is that I had to set the resolution manually (1920X1200). I replaced the Broadcom wireless card with an Orinico card which works perfect. Art On Mon, 2004-01-19 at 16:59, Charles wrote:

Hi. I am about to buy two laptops for my business, one of which (mine) I want to dual-boot with XP/SUSE [because we are running accounting s/w that won't run on Linux]. Any pointers as to which models to avoid etc? Thanks, Jake
Sorry, 8.2 pro is my SUSE OS. J
I personally dual XP/SuSE 9.0 with a Dell Inspiron 8200 and its my primary machine. SuSE grabs everything except my Video and Wireless. I updated my Video and it was all set, but the wireless was a lost cause. Linuxant has a for price windows driver mod that works under linux, but support couldn't help me get it running so I scraped it..
:) I know its not what you asked, but I figure I tell u anyway :P
