proposal: create a documentation packages for each laptop brand-serie
I think it could be a good thing if someone buying a new laptop could
simply do
apt-get install laptopbrand-laptopserie
and then obtain in /usr/share/doc/laptopbrand-laptopserie all needed
documentation on how to configure his laptop, necessary kernel patches,
a working .config, a working XF86Config-4, pointers and links to
websites with personal installation reports, working configuration files
for other laptop-typical packages like powernowd and suggestions about
useful packages
this could also help long-term users to share informations and fine-tune
their laptop
I have proposed a package for each serie because I noticed that vendors
tends to use similar hardware in a new serie of laptops (except for some
things like video board)
will someone be interested?
