current laptop has only an SSD for storage (256
GB, I believe, half for Linux and half for Windows). I use Linux on it
98% of the time. Swap space allocated on the SSD. No problem at all so
far in 1 year of operation.

for RAM >= 4GB.

an issue. I could see, maybe, how suspend may need some swap, mind you,
as it does use RAM but very little over and above what is currently
being used by the running programs?

FYI, gphotofs and gthumb, tools that depend on gphoto2, work very well
for a cable connection with Android phones, at least for photos.

There are plenty of browsers to choose from in Debian, many of which are

Very true ... but maybe not very helpful for the OP?
For the OP, have you (a) looked at the system logs (which you can easily
do in text mode) and maybe (b) reconfigured the X server?

You may need to install firmware from the non-free Debian
repository. For instance, on my Dell laptop, I needed to install
firmware-iwlwifi to get the WiFi working.

Or, if you have /home separate, install Jessie over whatever you have

reasons for having separate disk partitions for / and
date driver.

It may not be fashionable (although I am not sure how this has been

I recently acquired a Samsung N220 laptop (Intel Atom N450 chip, 10"
screen, etc). After some playing around, yesterday I was able to
install Debian squeeze on this system and managed to get even wireless
working (once I tracked down the firmware required). Sounds works as well.
