LinuxCertified LC2210D Laptop Review

Posted by timothy on Wednesday May 11, 2005 @02:49AM from the that's-where-the-linux-laptops-are dept.

Provataki writes "OSNews posted a review of the LinuxCertified LC2210D laptop, running the latest Ubuntu. The laptop delivers pretty well and it has modern characteristics for a fair price but it's not without its small configuration issues. It is also another proof that Linux's ACPI sleep support does not work on most laptops out there, even the ones picked for best compatibility with Linux."

how can you say that sleep is only an issue with 0.01% of laptop users? The reason that I got a laptop was so that I could be mobily productive and a big part of that is being able to go a long time between charges. I imagine most people have laptops for the same reason and so it is an issue.
