![]() This is my old page which mostly describes my experiences with Mandrake 8.1 on this laptop. My new page is more current and describes my experiences with Gentoo Linux. Linux runs beautifully on this model of the Fujitsu E-Series laptops, although several things need to be manually configured. I would not recommend this machine to a first-time Linux user unless you are particularly adventurous or have a Linux guru friend you wouldn't mind taking to dinner once or twice. My primary OS is Mandrake 8.1, although I have also installed several other operating systems on this laptop, including Mandrake 8.0, Red Hat 7.1, Windows 98, Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Server, and UnixWare 7.1.1. Currently I only have 3 (Mandrake 8.1, Win98, and UnixWare) installed natively and run all the rest (plus Solaris 8, and a few others) in VMware virtual machines. I multiboot to Windows just for a game or two and UnixWare just because I haven't been able to get it running under VMware. My model has 512MB RAM, 30GB hard drive, 1GHz P-III, CD-RW/DVD combo drive, wireless IR mouse, and an external USB floppy. Things that required additional configuration after a Mandrake 8.1 installation: audio, pcmcia, floppy, and CD writing. (The list for Windows is much longer, but Fujitsu provides drivers.) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
