As others have pointed the problem is with the manufacturer not releasing the hardware specs to the Linux kernel driver developers. Get an inventory of the hardware spec (at the chip set level). Watch the release notes of the kernel releases. When you see your hardware in the list, build yourself a "custom" kernel. As someone pointed out - it is best to buy a model that is known to work with Linux. Typically, the systems with pre loaded "FreeDOS" or "Linpus Linux" pretty much work out of the box with the latest distros. This has been my experience for the last two laptop purchases. > > *"Walking on water and developing software from a specification are easy > if both are frozen."* Nice Sig line :) -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
