[xellos_pl]

Hi there, i would like to ask You about chances if i want to install suse on my laptop:

My hardware (ACER Aspire 9300 model: 9302AWSMi):
AMD Turion 64,
GeForce 6100go,
2GB Ram
WiFi 802.11 b/g (model: Broadcom 802.11 g)

Now im using ms vista which is ****. After SP1 my grand mother is faster on wheelchair than my computer. And my question is:
Can someone assist me with my migration to linux (eg. when my grapic card or wifi will not run) via skype or irc.

Thanks,
xellos.

Hi xellos_pl,
Please check here
PCI - Linux Wireless
I need to know your PCI vendor ID to make any comments else I would be wrong because I myself have never used this piece of hardware.
Hope this helps

Best Regards
Tanmaya
