I see there is an ATI video repository for Suse. I'll give it another shot.
No problem with Nvidia drivers and 3D. Incidentally, Google Earth runs a
bit better under linux than windows. There are a few features in the
Linux version missing from the windows version, but I've gone too far
off to
ATI's support has gotten better over the years.. I have a R280 card
and the driver took a little bit of work to get working (then again I
upgraded from a NVidia g 440mx.

Actually, with Ubuntu 9.04, my ATI has full 3D effects immediately upon
installation, without having to enable proprietary drivers.

Oddly enough, my ATI card sets up much easier (and extremely stable) than my
brother's Nvidia, and my sound has worked great since Ubuntu 7.10, on a HDA
intel chip. I have full functionality with headphones, externals, mic, and
all. I don't recommend my machine (a Gateway MT6451) per se, but it

Heh. To be honest I always avoid Nvidia for Linux. Intel graphics

Although I do not have this problem with
I'm an ATI fan, but I have to agree Nvidia linux support is better. On Suse,
they has their own repository set up.
I gave up on HDA in favor of a C-media based XS71 soundcard. You can only spend
so much time beating your head against the wall before $30 US sounds like a
bargain.
The difficult thing about this is that its hard to know that you are
getting an Intel HDA setup. I got a NVidia chipset and it ended up
being a Intel HDA. Also watch out for VIA video cards, they are awful
and have poor Linux support (yes they have drivers but its locked
down to kernel and dist
I am all over the idea of getting a "Linux friendly" laptop the next time I
go shopping. So far I know enough to stay away from:
1) ATI video cards
2) Intel HDA sound
anything else I should be aware of? I still want to get decent hardware.
Can someone recommend a laptop brand that typically has

I did not mean that I was running Alsa .12. I am running the latest that

If you really are concerned with fidelity, I'd look at the chip specs.
The card performance can on

Do you use a bluetooth headset? If yes, can you please play a w
