Speaking of laptops, is there a recommended/approved hardware list? RL is similar to Caldera, right? Do they have a recommended hardware list?
The reason I ask is that I'm going to buy a new laptop and wanted to make sure it would work. I've heard Toshiba's are good. I've also heard that IBM's are notorious for Winmodem problems? As I mentioned to the list, I've attempted to install RL on a couple of Dell laptops with mostly success. One thing I was looking forward to in RL is that you wouldn't have to recompile the kernel three or four times to "get it right". What I liked about the 7.x SuSE install is that when it was done, everything worked. Sound, video, etc. But, it was too bloated and I didn't like the way it handled configuration changes and the like. RL has everything I need, minus a couple of laptop specific programs. It's clean, neat, and simple and it doesn't fill up half my hard drive. Thought I would end it on a positive note (-: I'm really eager to play with the Remote Control(?) package. My Father-In-Law is needing a laptop for his job and I was really thinking about putting RL on it (1) for the the simplicity and now (2) for the remote admin. later. - -- rl-users list.
