any examples where Debian was installed in Dell Inspiron 5160?
A friend, whom I have introduced to Linux(Debian Sarge) and now loves
it, asked me if Linux (Fedora Core 2 or Debian) will run nicely on
Inspiron 5160. If I yes, the notebook will bought. But I can't say yes
till I am sure. I am looking for someone who has tried this. The
notebook in question seems to be fairly new model and has no mention in
http://www.linux-laptop.net/. However, the 5150 is mentioned there.
So if anyone here has tried it, could you share your experince?
The specs, for others who may be able to give advice, are:
Processor: Mobile Pentium 4 (2.8GHz with 533 MHz FSB)
screen: 15 in. SXGA display
RAM: 512MB 333MHz 2 DIMMs
Video card: Nvidia 64MB GeForce FX, Go5200 AGP 4x
Hard drive: 60GB ultra ATA
NIC: INTNIC
Modem: INTMDM
DVD/CD: 8x DVDRW
W/L NIC: TM13501 802.11b/g 54Mbps Mini PCI card
Thanks,
->HS
