Hi, I'm recently retired from my university job. I am looking for a laptop to run CentOS 6/7. My university was a traditional Dell site so I've used Latitude laptops for years, currently E6500/E6510. Anybody got any experience of running CentOS on the newer Dell Latitudes E5000 or E7000. These are not certified according to Redhats' Hardware Guide. Alternatively Precision

I bet my wife's new Latitude 15 5000 would be problematic, it uses USB C/Thunderport for its docking station which has 2 additional video adapters in it. She's even having some issues

Please ... any info on how to proceed??? After I made sure it had the correct sha256sum, and after I burned it to DVD, and and dd'd the DVD back to a temp file and again checked the sha256sum of the temp file, all was OK. Same sha256sum. So, I rebooted the machine and it booted up from the DVD. I got a message that it was not using VNC, Then after that immediately an error came out saying

Hi, Thanks for reading this. I installed CentOS 7 (tried the latest ISO image and the previous build) on the laptop and got to the point where I am logging into the desktop environment and the laptop just shuts down. I check the event log in BIOS and find that a thermal event has occurred and the system powered off to prevent damage. I can take the same laptop with Windows 7 installed and run

Thanx to all who replied. I downloaded using torrent and that was indeed fast. However .... after I made sure it had the correct sha256sum, and after I burned it to DVD, and and dd'd the DVD back to a temp file and again checked the sha256sum of the temp file, all was OK. Same sha256sum. So, I rebooted the machine and it booted up from the DVD. I got a message that it was not using VNC,

I did see your post. So, even though the sha256sum was perfect on the iso file and on the DVD, it failed to install. I then used a usb flash drive and booted the flash drive to do the install. It also failed. The screen image I took with my camera can be viewed at https://www.sendspace.com/file/4828ej The questions I have are: why VNC ??? VNC is a horribly insecure protocol. Why would I want

Hi Tony, I've installed CentOS7 on a Latitude 7470 and can say for a fact that most of the suff just works, while some of it that doesn't (like HDMI, or KMS, nifty little feature I like to have) works with an Elrepo LT or ML kernels. Personally, I'd recommend the LT kernel. I also read in the RHEL 7.3 release notes that I2C support for Gen6 mobile CPUs was introduced. Thus as the

Hello there, since I installed CentOS6 few months ago (kept up-to-date using yum), I'm facing very poor performances when writing to USB pendrives. The hardware: a Dell Latitude E6500 laptop (Intel Core Duo P8600 @2.40Ghz), 4Go RAM + 4Go swap, several USB2 pendrives of various brands (less than old, all formatted as vfat). When I perform a copy (with cp or midnight commander, copying big

I have been buying off-lease used Latitudes and Precision laptops for years for the sole reason that they are always Linux friendly and solidly reliable. Most of them can be ordered new with Ubuntu.
