I have an HP NC8000 Notebook that works flawlessly with linux.
It uses an atheros based wifi card that requires the free madwifi module. Ubuntu has it preinstalled, debian has a source package (madwifi-source) you can download and build with the debian package tools. Everything else works out of the box. The only thing I haven't tried to use yet is the 56K modem, but I don't need it anyway So +1 for HP from me :) Alex On 12/30/06, Peter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Lenovo != IBM in the sense that IBM is no longer in control. The factory is the same (in theory).
