Hi,
I bought a Dell inspirion 1505 (2 GHz Core duo, 1 GB Ram, 80GB HDD). I
wonder if I could install linux on it, because I know there are some
laptops that prevent installing linux on them.
I searched on http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/dell.html and found that
Zenwalk 2.6 & kubuntu.
Is that they tried or is that they are supporting fully (Audio & video
etc....).
Please let me know which distribution will be good for my laptop.
Try Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, Dapper Drake. Everything will work in a fly! If its
laptop, then one of the solution is "Dapper Drake" :D
(Personal experience, I have a *designed for windows* Lenovo N100. Only
Ubtuntu Dapper Drake worked perfectly amongst the common GNU/Linux
distros :) )
