If you really need a laptop with everything ready to go in linux another approach is to get it from http://www.emperorlinux.com/ Those guys do a great job. They have a very well written manual that if you are new to linux will save hours of work. They have a good support. So if you get a Lenovo X-60 with suse install you know it will work. The first I got from them I was new to linux, I need it for business, I had to give a lecture and 2 days before traveling came with all installed. I just loaded the presentation and I went. All went perfect. So getting a laptop with linux is not a problem.

Do they have their people who can write device drivers? That is what would be needed to get a 56k modem to work. I was under the impression that Emperor Linux was just an OEM type integrator. People seed to forget that laptops are used on the road and sometimes you only have access to the Internet via dial-up. Thus, a laptop without a modem is somewhat useless on the road. I have even triead a fully hardware Zonet PCMCIA modem with various distros on my Thinkpad T-41 and can not get it to work. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
