I'm running 6.0 on a Toshiba 2515. Installed great and everything works (sound, pcmcia modem and ethernet card, etc). Pick up a 6.0 version it includes some kde utils for apm (dockable battery monitor, suspend util) plus the cool theme manager. Running the MacOS theme on the laptop looks good. Another big plus on the 6.0 version is the pgcc compilation. My sys is a P266MMX 32m ram, and with RH6.0 is was a bit slow. With the LM 6.0 installed I saw at least a 15%-20% bump in speed. My only prob is with the kernel upgrade. Upgrading to the official 2.2.9 or the cooker 2.2.10 packages kills pcmcia. I've not had the time to poke around and find a fix. With the orig kernel I get the damn umount failure on halt. But I need the ethernet card so I'm living with it until I get around to finding a fix, or the next mandrake version comes out.
