3. Laptops
In general, any laptop will support Linux fine. Some specific
features (wireless and video especially) may have issues, but these
should not interfere with basic functionality.
Currently, laptops with the
Intel®
Centrino™ logo are the most likely to work perfectly under
Linux. The Intel PRO/Wireless
2100 and
2200 802.11b/g
wireless cards are supported by drivers released by Intel that are being
integrated into the stock Linux kernel. Accelerated 3D support for
the on-board video is provided by the
DRI project and
is included in recent releases of
X.org and
XFree86.
