I'm running a DELL Precicision M90 w/2GRam and a Centrino Duo CPU with SuSE10. It runs extremely well. It ran SuSE10.1 extremely well (wireless right out of the box and all), but I had to ditch S10.1 due to the utterly stupid YAST/update BUG.
Speaking of which I still don't know if it has been fixed. Despite the large amount of postings on this list regarding this matter.

I've installed and re-installed 10.1 on various hardware including PPC and if you use YaST to do the initial online updates and let YaST choose what to download/install/fix at least 3 times in a row, everything is fine. Do not be tempted to get any other patch/fix/update other than what YaST chooses those approximately 3 times and everything should be fine. Verify that YaST is choosing something even if it seems to be the same &@!($% thing each time. Once YaST is no longer choosing just one or two things related to itself, zypp, etc to the exclusion of all other updates/patches/etc, then choose whatever you like and get the updates. I hope I was clear on this. Let YaST do its online update thing for about 3 times and all should be good. Works for me, many times, on many hardware platforms. Stan
