Tom Aunt Google knows Databases for laptops/notebooks wich work well with Linux. If they are known for running Linux without issues, the prognosis is good for getting ubuntustudio run on them smoothly too. Hardware should be widespread on market at least for 1-2 years, but not much older. Not the bleeding edge if you want to get it running oootb, no exotics, no unnecessary gimmicks. Intel-Atom CPUs work, but much more satisfying for serious media-work are standard dual/quad cores 2GHz, FSB 667. Intel, AMD or Nvidia chipset, at least 4G DDR2or3 RAM, integrated HD-audio and Firewire. If mainly used for audio production integrated Intel graphic chips will do the job. For a little more advanced graphics, video work and gaming I'd recommend any widely used Nvidia or Ati chip with 1/2G dedicated memory. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

Price of laptops is dropping. Need recommendations for laptop manufacturers that make best equipment for putting ubuntustudio on them. Tom I have an ASUS. No problems with the laptop per se, but I'd like to mention that I'm having trouble with my Echo Indigo IOX expresscard. The Creative X-fi doesn't work bad, though. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
Re: laptops this holiday season
Hi: Well, I'm thinking about buy a Samsung NC20, it's a netbook, with a huge screen (for this kind of gadgets) of 12.1, and all the features you'll find in one. The slogan is: The favourites in Europe. I'm not sure and it isn't important to me. But this model has not an Atom processor as the most of the netbooks around the world. It has an interesting Nano by VIA. But I don't find yet documentation about this processors running under Ubuntu, and for me will be grateful can install Ubuntu Studio in one, ¿could be this possible now?
