> Your experience running Linux on a laptop is highly dependent on how well it supports the hardware that happens to be in your device. My second mainline Linux install was a copy of RedHat on a laptop. Mind you, this was RedHat 5.1 on an old 486 laptop with 8 meg of RAM, PCMCIA, etc. Sometime in 1995 or 96, I forget. Several re-compiles later, I had that entire system working - all drivers for all the hardware, including the built-in modem (plus sound and PCMCIA ethernet). I got lucky there. |
