+1 from me too.
I installed opensolaris (build 19) and built a kernel from the 20050720
snapshot so I could have acpica.
I found and installed your acpidrv too.
All in all, the system (a Toshiba Satellite M30 1.7GHz centrino with nvidia
gfx) seems to work well.
On my wishlist are the following:
I'm sure it will work, I'm running it on an Acer Aspire 5020 series
laptop which is a similar spec. If you have any panic during the
initial boot off the CD, you may need to refer to this posting in the
solarisx86 yahoo group,
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/2
Cheers,
Conor
Has anyone installed Solaris 10 on an Acer Aspire 1520 yet? I'm considering a
wipe/install but am unsure what hardware will/not work... Anyone got one?

If a wireless is so critical, you can try an ethernet bridge, which connects
your ethernet port to a wireless router. The one I have is a Linksys
Wireless-G Game adapter (WGA54G). Bulky, but when it may b

As I have mentioned a few times, I didn't get to choose the unit. I
was asked if I wanted a laptop, I said "yes", and that's what I got :)

WHy not a Ferrari or something better supported by SOlaris?
I went through several Sun's blogs that I am familiar with, but couldn't find
details of how well Ferrari is supported by Solaris. Perhaps someone in the
know could provide more info? Or lead me to where I can find such? Thanks.

Better than what? The type of processor is largely irrelvant as
long as you have all the CPUID information (which we do).

Have you tried psrinfo -pv? On AMD chips I can see things like
'Athlon64 3000+' or 'Opteron(tm) Processor 850' as well as model,
stepping, and clock.

The x700 isn't supported in Solaris until Nevada build 19, though

It will, however due to a problem with the BIOS, a workaround is
necessary, you need to run the kernel debugger to get the Nevada
installation media to boot the OS. I don't know if there's likely to
be a fix included in one of the

I bought an HP ze2000 notebook specifically for testing Solaris 10. A couple
of days ago, I saw the only Turion64 based notebook ad on CNN, and that's the
same machine as I have.
I have been trying to find a workable Linux notebook for more than five years
