I just installed Fedora 7 on my Thinkpad T41p. I think this is the first time in years that the install worked flawlessly first time and that all the important hardware is functional "out of the box".. I have hibernate, suspend, sound, bluetooth, WiFi (via the madwifi drivers on livna), video (courtesy mplayer). I suspect the TV out won't work without the proprietary video drivers, but that is not essential for me right now. The last time something like that happened was back in the previous century with something like Redhat 5 on a Gateway Solo laptop. UI looks nice and better organised than before. I'm also impressed by the hardware profile request at install time -- I think that will be a useful resource. A big step forward. Congrats to the Fedora team on what looks like an excellent product.
