Get a live cd of fedora, and test it on your target machine if you can. Ask in #fedora on freenode if anyone actually has your laptop running fedora, or even indeed on this list :) --- Kind Regards, Mr Gabriel (bberry mail) -----Original Message----- From: "Kwan Lowe" <kwan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sender: <users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2010 10:18:20 To: <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Reply-To: "Community support for Fedora users" <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: HCL Hello All: I am about to build out a physical Fedora system on an existing laptop. Up to now all my installations have been within VMWare, Xen or KVM. I found the HCL (Hardware Compatibility List), but it is very much dated and largely unpopulated. I seem to recall a process some time ago where hardware profiles could be uploaded and their level of support ranked (e.g., "doesn't work", "works with issues", all the way to "works flawlessly"). Anyone have a Google spell or a URL for this project? I'm considering purchasing a new, low-end laptop for this project and definitely need wireless, dual monitor output in all modes (laptop screen and monitor in mirrored display and xinerama), and camera/mic. The issue I'm confronting is that the low-end laptops do not always list their components so I need to go by specific model names.
