For better hardware support and newer drivers I didn't choose CentOS but Lubuntu LTS. Luckily, the first laptop, a Toshiba Satellite L50 booted without any issues. WIFI was also working so I took that. I wouldn't use mail order since I've read that there are different hardware configurations possible, although they're using the same model name. -- Gruß, Christian _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
