Install RedHat on Dell Inspiraon E1505/ 6400 laptop

[Waleed Harbi]

Red Hat doesn't support laptops as they said :

Laptops are one of the hardest pieces of hardware to support for any
operating system. Many times, the company that constructs the hardware has
to tweak a chip set to make it fit in the confined structure or meet certain
power requirements. These changes are usually only documented internally for
trade secret reasons and can only be reverse-engineered or worked around.

When Red Hat Support finds itself with a laptop question, our first (and
sometimes only) reference is the Linux Laptop Pages, which can be found at
http://www.linux-laptop.net.
