I use SUSE on my Dell Inspiron 5150 Laptop, and I've never had a problem. I actually had 8.2 on there for a long time and never had a problem. Hell it works better on the Battery than Windows XP does which is what it came with. My Pentium 4 M @ a little over 3 GHz works great on it, and I actually get about 7 hours of Battery with SUSE. I found out because I forgot to shut it off one day and had power stuff all turned off, and when I got home it was a wee bit warm, but it had been on for more than 5 hours and the light on the battery was JUST then blinking to say it was low. I paid extra for that Battery but it was worth it, why by a laptop without buying a greta battery that's going to last? I mean that's the point of a laptop is using it without being on a desk. Man I'm rambling but it's Halloween and I had so much fun. Anyway, just pointing out that SUSE comes with everything you need. :) -Allen. > Regards > Alistair > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
