Installation
I've got some info about various distros' installation procedures on my X20:
- Ubuntu 6.06 -- CD installation is very slow and hangs before completing
- Arch 0.7.2 -- Installs fine, installed system detects hardware correctly, but Xorg will not load
- Slackware 10.2 -- Installs fine, installed system detects hardware correctly
- Debian 3.1 -- Installs fine, installed system detects hardware correctly
So there it is. I can't think of a way to incorporate this, and I don't think it's even particularly useful. It's worth at least having it available on the Talk page though. I've been using Slackware on it as the main system, and absolutely no hacks of any kind have been necessary. That's unprecedented in my experience of both Linux and Slackware.
