Interestingly, I installed Ubuntu 6.06 on my laptop to see if it'd handle suspend better than FC5. I found it didn't right out of the box but a very quick google led me to a page on their wiki that explained the steps needed. I had it working in a few minutes. They also supported my ipw3945 card without needing to enable outside repos or install the driver from source. +2 for Ubuntu in the hardware detection category on my laptop. I've yet to manage to duplicate the success with suspend in Ubuntu on FC5 and that's rather irritating. I know now that it's not a simple matter of the hardware not supporting it. It's a matter of twiddling the right switches. And those switches aren't well marked in FC. :( FWIW, I tried the same thing with SUSE 10.1 and it failed the suspend test but it did enable the ipw3945 driver easier than FC. Next up is Gentoo. :) - -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iQFDBAEBAgAtBQJE9wX7JhhodHRwOi8vd3d3LnBvYm94LmNvbS9+dG16L3BncC90 bXouYXNjAAoJEEMlk4u+rwzjd4EH/1fCNOmaoXVaFwzm2J2VVNzrHapwgpb8nYUD gpwxC/OoeQVdhggLpuo+97GotpgjMuUez/b20fNxilRgL+N0NPSGKY2+Es/Wlypj 3RjCDCU8NQjs4VdM+48Lpgt2f+PK5vLywAKDqc9a3dvZSNruBp1Qv7cAwDw+OMzt JDYTaY5J4nBcDUMgR1qeDR+CYsSVMiabV/Mg25I6XCFfNtGoZYFXV4gTMCNGQ5nt /RSJUKl6M4DwwAl8V813cT9R1JE8DA2EHCOazIg2WyuiRG20VDciclD2LSPvGVIn kXsiS9324mWku63KYezC3/c5q2EHKv1HSG/5YC1HcIrxVBqUTpU= =KoqH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
