Sorry for the delayed response.
This is a new Compaq laptop, Turin64, ATI video.
I tried Suse,Mandriva, Linspire,Ubuntu, Kubuntu.
All resulted in unique problems. Linspire failed miserably. (x86 versions not
64bit)
I prefer to load Kubuntu if I can.
I don't know if the store will take the machine back .
Kubuntu - /etc/init.d/kdm restart responded with Stopping KDM, Starting KDM and
back to text mode.
On reboot,it started to 'hang' at the 'checking battery status' step. Had to
hit power off/on.
Should I just buy old/used hardware?
