hey bro can ya show us beryl? and while your at it to get much better smoother quality tone down the resulution to 1024x768 then you can have 16 bit color 2 GB RAM and while your at it show us all how to over clock that bad boy i wanna see wine and cedega running some games
Yup. I set the two computers up front to front and this is the result. The sad thing is it would be hard to run the experiment in reverse, because so far every video I've tried recording with the Mini-Note webcam has been extraordinarily choppy.
Via c-7 and Chrome graphics....is probably the main reason why video is choppy...haha Deal breaker for me...are you running the 599 version? Did it come with xp driver cd? If I were to get this I wouldnt instantly run xp but im not sure if it did come with xp driver disc or not. Thanks!
hey i just got mines- it's a fantastic little system! suse is slick and runs pretty well but is it my imagination or does suse actually take up 2.x gb? i got the 4gb and it says i have 750mb left- is that right?
Linux aggressively uses the RAM to cache things, in order to speed up IO. So even with multi-gigabyte systems it would seem like all your RAM is used up, when in fact it's just being used for caching. If some app needed more RAM, it would still get it. And why would you want your RAM to sit there un-used?
Finally, somebody who didn't waste their money on Windoze. I plan on getting the 120GB Linux version, ($550) but I'll probably do a minimal install of Debian with wmii.
I'm a little confused here. I thought this came with SuSE Enterprise 10, not OpenSuSE. Also, you have experienced no problems with crashing or absent drivers like I've heard elsewhere? Everything worked fine out of the box? The stories I've heard about people trying to get things running in Ubuntu sound quite nightmarish.
First, yeah, I think you're right about this being enterprise, not Open. As for things working out of the box, honestly everything seemed to work just fine but I only spent about 2 hours with Linux before I installed Windows XP. I'd like to install Ubuntu on a separate partition, but I'll probably wait until someone solves some of the stability/driver issues first.
Honestly, I didn't try it with a local video file and I'm in the process of trying out different operating systems now so I can't try it out right now.
Hi, I just ordered this a week ago, I'm about to get it any time now when I came upon this video review and I was wondering:
Does the fullscreen video lag when watching any video at all? or does it only do that with streaming flash? I hope it can at least run local flv/mpg/divx in decent speed
Why linux? can you put Windows on this screen?

Well, in Windows XP full screen video from a local drive looks awesome. Full screen video using a browser-based Flash plaer, not so much.

hmm, does everything work in XP? like the audio, webcam, wifi?
