Hi Amrik,<br><br>I use Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1.I find Intrepid too buggy.That may be why it refused to install on your laptop. I run it on a Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop: it ran OK on 0.5 GB memory but I increased it to 2GB as I want to run openSUSE in a virtual machine. There are some small issues e.g. switching users more than twice. I don't use Compiz (i.e. 3D, wobbly windows etc) but it does work OK on the 1501. I use a networked printer (thru the router) which has to be configured as socket.<br clear="all">
<br>Regards,<br>John<br>

Hi all and a Very Happy New Year,<br>
<br>
I've been reading your posts for a while now but haven't had the time to come along to your meetings. Am hoping to come along to your next one though.<br>
<br>
Prior to attending, however I do want to be familiar with Linux in particular Ubuntu. I was wondering if anyone could kindly point me in the direction of a laptop which would run the latest version of Ubuntu with any problems (have tried installing it on my Dell C400 (P3/1.2Gb/512) but failed miserably with it just hanging halfway through the installation).<br>
<br>
I dont' want to be spending too much but would like it to do all that fancy 3D stuff.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
