Time for a Linux laptop
,----[ Quote ]
| 5. My budget is $1400
|
| What? That low a budget for a new, and
| surprisingly beefy laptop? Sure! Why not? I
| know this is doable. Granted, it isnât
| doable with a vendor like Emperor Linux â
| as a matter of fact it flatly rules them
| completely out â but it leaves in plenty of
| other options for me.

Mandriva 2010.0 on a Dell Latitude XT
,----[ Quote ]
| Sound works out-of-the-box and so did
| Compiz desktop effects (once enabled) which
| is better than I expected for this weak of
| a CPU and GPU configuration in this
| machine.
|
| This is not meant to be a review for
| Mandriva 2010.0, rather some comments
| regarding Mandriva 2010.0 being installed
| on a Dell Latitude XT notebook giving
| insight on what works natively and what
| doesn't. I'm impressed with KDE4 and the
| Mandriva distribution, but I'll save that
| talk for another post.

Penguins converge on Austin Texas

| Let's see ... Softlayer, Zenoss, Canonical,
| Red Hat, Fedora, HP, IBM, Rackspace,
| Novell, and The Linux Fund are our
| commercial sponsors. Most of them had
| people submit session proposals, which was
| nice (and by that I mean they submitted
| talks independently of (usually before)
| being sponsors. We've also had several
| nonprofits lend us support in one way or
| another, like GNOME, Mozilla, the Linux
| Foundation. And the media sponsors have
| done a terrific job just helping us get the
| word out, which is vitally important when
| you're an event that no one has heard of
| before. That includes the Linux Journal
| (which is based out of Houston), LWN, Linux
| Magazine and Ubuntu User, LXer. They've
| not only allowed us to advertise, but have
| run our announcements and written blog
| entries to help spread the word.

ZaReason Teo
,----[ Quote ]
| The ZaReason Teo, that I just discovered on
| Amazon.com, looks like the successor of the
| Terra A20, which was the first netbook by
| ZaReason, who build laptops, desktops, and
| servers running Ubuntu Linux or
| derivatives.

ZaReason Teo: Pine Trail netbook with an Ubuntu Linux twist
,----[ Quote ]
| Linux system builder ZaReason appears to
| have launched a new Linux netbook. While
| thereâs no information about the new Teo
| netbook on the ZaReason web site, you can
| already order one from Amazon for $460.
|
| The Teo bears a more than passing
| resemblance to the original MSI Wind U100
| 10 inch netbook, and I wouldnât be
| surprised if ZaReason was working with MSI
| to supply the chassis and possibly some
| other components. Spec-wise, the netbook
| has a 10 inch. 1024 x 600 non-glare
| display, a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 Pine
| Trail processor and 160GB hard drive.Amazon
| says it should get 8 hours of battery life.

Compaq Presario 2175us Ubuntu Graphics Driver
,----[ Quote ]
| For the average IT consumer the term
| Operating System equals with Windows. Few
| of them are aware that there is life beyond
| Windows. There are many open source
| operating system out there, the majority
| are Linux based. Lately the most popular
| Linux distribution is Ubuntu (current
| version is 9.10, codenamed Karmic Koala).
| Of course for those of us who were âborn
| into Windowsâ it could be hard to make the
| switch to Linux. There are pros and cons
| about Linux systems. The most important pro
| is that it is completely free! One of the
| major drawbacks would be the fact that
| sometimes it is hard to find the right
| drivers for your machine.
