SUSE 10.2 /SLED10

#1 Post by zeuiax » Wed Jan 31, 2007 11:43 am

Has anyone installed SLED10 or SUSE 10.2 on z61t with dual boot??
If yes, could you please tell me the list of things works from out of the box??

Here's another site that helped me:

http://www.cryptosecurity.net/Suse_T60_DRAFT.htm

Granted, it's for a T60 but I used it to get the fingerprint reader working (I don't think your z61t has one, but correct me if I'm wrong) and enable a lot of the keyboard features. For example, every time I press the Thinkvantage button a terminal opens (very handy!). I think the guide covers modem/fax but I didn't look at that part.
