I'm actually using CentOS on 2 laptops, and I have really few issues: on the newer one (a Lenovo) the only thing that doesn't work is sound (I know the newer alsa drivers would work, but I'm too lazy to install them: I'll wait for the updates) but it isn't a big deal: I'm using it for work, and I don't need sound
Or, if we create a page on there, should multiple entries of the same laptop model go on the same line somehow?
What I prefer is to have one single page per Laptop model. And a different section for each CentOS version (starting with the latest, CentOS-5 first).
If people have their own blog articles or webpages about their laptop model, I would like to have this information reside inside of that page (now they are on the index page temporarily).
Sadly, for now, you have to request access to be allowed to create or edit these pages. I hope in the future we will have a more liberal view wrt. the wiki.
PS I created this structure for your X60 for now, I plan to add my own laptops soon (but it does not include a X60). If you can add your information to this existing page, I am sure this is very valuable for another X60 owner.
Last weekend I tried to install Centos 5.0 into my old Toshiba 4200. No luck. The installation process stop in different places.
Any recommendations?
Do you have more information ? Where exactly did it stop ? What was in the log ? Maybe try again with CentOS 5.1 ?
I tried Startcom which is also redhat based and the installation process ended successfully.
Not sure if StartCom is RHEL. They have a release called 5.0.6, but no clue to what that matches. What version of StartCom did you use ?
I will keep trying to see if I can get my laptop to run Centos. I will also share my findings when trying to get my laptop to connect to the internet using bcm43xx using fwcutter, if that is ok you guys?
Great.
