I need to buy a mini-laptop for conference presentations and for travels. The most inexpensive laptops on the market seem to be those with Linux installed. I am wondering if you could share your experience with these laptops when openSuSE is used. thanks Bogdan
I use HP 2230s. It is light and powerful, it is considered not mini-laptop though :-) openSUSE 11.1 with KDE 4.2. Working fine. Sound and graphics are good. Well, it has Intel GM45 graphics. Still has some bugs with 3D application, but no problem with desktop effect. If I run Google Earth with desktop effect enable than GE become useless. Wireless is supported out of the box (iwlagn5100). It has fingerprint but still not supported by linux (ID 08ff:2810 AuthenTec, Inc. See http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Unsupported_devices#AuthenTec_AES2550_.26...) No problem with projector. Well, I still cannot manage dual monitor with projector output :-) medwinz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
