Laptop

New laptop arrived today, and it’s niiice. SUSE 10.1 is now installed, installation went like a dream – Windows partitions were resized perfectly. Interestingly, I’ve managed to find a laptop where the WLAN adaptor is supported out of the box (Centrino), but the NIC isn’t[1]. So, I now have a nice, widescreen, Xgl-enabled notebook.
