as a followup to an earlier post, i'm interested in finding an
entry-level laptop who's most important property is that it have a
full WUXGA (1920x1200) display, preferably non-NVIDIA video, and runs
fedora reliably.
the dell vostro seems to fit the bill:
http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx?c=ca&cs=cabsdt1&id=vostronb_1510&l=en&s=bsd
a default configuration, changing only the display to WUXGA, comes in
at only $779 canadian.
does anyone have any personal experience with this model and
fedora? the video is "IntelJ Integrated Graphics Media Accelerator
X3100", with nvidia as a more expensive option, so i'm not going there.
system doesn't need to be smokin' fast, just needs that display,
needs to run fedora and, ideally, has open source video drivers.
thoughts?
