Re: Best HP laptop for linux
I have a HP pavilion ze4907 with dual boot, Windows XP Home (oem) and Fedora Core 6 with 2 kernel version.
All the hardware work ok, except the volume buttons, but i can configure the volume via kde.
The modem is configured too.
I don't know what is the "best" for linux, but i know of the last kernel version see most hardware.
Regards

Re: Best HP laptop for linux
In the past based on forums experience the entry level HP laptops were many times unsuitable for Linux due to a lack of driver support.
Those that have had the most success have chosen models that HP certifies with Linux.

Re: Best HP laptop for linux
an other way to find the right hardware is to do a sezrch on the linux distribution site you plan on using, search and try find the "hal" hardware list for laptops
I am now answering this using fedora core 6 on a Aspire 5630... but I still have to investigate and get the internal wifi working on this laptop... I will get it to work, in the mean while I use a pcmcia wifi card ... the rest to my knowledge is working.
