Must install with kernel in safe mode. Choose KDE desktop if you want to be able to use native 1400x1050px resolution. |
If you update the kernel beyond what is on the standard 10.3 install disk then you will only render the desktop on the LHS of the screen - disable kernel updates to keep it in full screen!
Wireless and wired networks function, as does USB. Not managed to get it to actually hit the off switch - you have to pull the battery out to actually kill it (although it seems happy on a restart if you do this). Similarly with suspend to disk - it sleeps fine, and even if you have to pull the plug as described it will still restore your session. |

Everything works well, without any effort. The only useful stuff is to set the native resolution
to 1280x800 with the command: "855resolution 3c 1280 800" in the file /etc/rc.d/boot.local or for SUSE 10.1, follow the instructions given in Patch the Video BIOS. Enjoy!!! |

Compiz-Fusion is slower than it should be up to at least NVIDIA driver 177.80 due to the power minimizer feature. Touchpad default configuration makes 50% of the touchpad vertical scroll, solved by using a default usb mouse driver for it instead. (Or getting the latest Synaptic driver) | If combined with an intel wireless 4965AGN card it works sporadically |
