I just purchased a sweet Dell XPS M170 laptop. Does anyone on the list have experience installing and using SuSE 10. on these new systems. Thanks in advance. W. Westfall

no but REAL close:) I have a XPS M140 I just got in January, dual-boot XP & SUSE 10.0 . It has an Intel 2915 wireless card, 1 Gb of ram and a 100 Gb HD. after I got the wireless card updated driver, software & Bios, I was able to use the card with more than one login. When I first got it, it was unavailable for the 2nd user on the system. Got a nice Netgear 4-port router for wireless access. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800

it doesn't list the DELL XPS line, which he is asking about. Mine isn't there either, the XPS M140, but it works fine. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800

Then please add it to the list on the wiki. Iz
Yes, I have one with xp and suse 10.0 dualboot working fine.
Have the GF 7800GTX card and dvd duallayer burner, works fine but do my
gaming using the xp.
The thing I havent get to work is the sd memory card reader but I have so
little experience in the world of Linux so I gues that I will get it to run
later :)...

Usually you can mount this as usb mass storage. Plug it in, then type dmesg at command prompt to find out device name. Then mount with a command similar to: mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/memcard In this example, modify the device name and mount point to be correct for your system.
