Re: Laptops which run Arch

Lenovo X100e.  I have had trouble with kernel 3.1.4: the laptop will not suspend properly, and after attempting to suspend the screen turns off and the machine is non-responsive.  I solved this by downgrading to kernel 3.0.7.  I also had trouble (with several kernel versions) of the rtl8192 wifi driver not working after suspending.  I would have an active connection, suspend the machine, then wake it up and be unable to connect to any network.  This I solved by using

SUSPEND_MODULES="rtl8192se rtlwifi mac80211 cfg80211"

in /etc/pm/config.d/config.

Re: Laptops which run Arch

I run Arch Linux on my 13" Macbook Air 4,2, and it's phenomenal. I use a pure EFI boot, without any of the BIOS emulation nonsense.

I use subtle as my wm, which is the main reason for not running OSX full-time. I can't stand the OSX window manager!

I've just written up a quick guide describing the little bit of fiddling that I had to do to get it going: http://d.goodlad.net/articles/arch_linux_on_mba_42/

Re: Laptops which run Arch

Installed on my wife's HP Mini 110.   Battery life seems acceptable.  The Trackpad is a bit obnoxious.  May change after I give it some attention.

Otherwise, Gnome3 seems to be running just dandy.

Re: Laptops which run Arch

HP G62 with an Intel Core i3 CPU @ 2.13GHz with integrated GPU.

After a lot of searching and a simple tweak to get my screen brightness right (it was turned to the minimum value at boot), it works like a charm!


If the Matrix was real, it would run on Arch...

Re: Laptops which run Arch

Toshiba Qosmio x505 Q880

Most things work out of the box, with the exception of the microphone, HDMI audio, and multicard reader. These all are fixed with some modprobe.d conf files

/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf
----------------------------------------
# To make mic work
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-laptop
options snd-usb-audio index=-2

# To make HDMI audio work
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=0xffff,0xfff2

Re: Laptops which run Arch

Dell Studio 1735 Laptop

Everything works fine, though it's been an enjoyable experience getting all the right packages in place and choosing drivers.  Speaking of drivers, I use an ATI HD3650 Mobility Radeon.  The proprietary driver, fglrx, shows slightly, if any, improved 3D performance on games that I've ran on wine (World of Warcraft, Warcraft III, Quake IV, and Battlefield 2).  However, the proprietary driver produced obviously worse 2D acceleration on videos I play using VLC (DVD movies and a few 720p videos).  The open source, radeon, driver provides almost the same 3D performance with 2D performance that rivaled the Windows proprietary driver equivalent.

The webcam and all ins/outs worked fine out-of-the-box.  Even the built-in Dell commands above the keyboard that light up when you put your finger over them work in my desktop environment (KDE).  For wireless I used the b43 driver.

Big thumbs up!  I'm a hooked Arch user these days after the pre-packaged drivers that Fedora, openSUSE, and Ubuntu brought with them never gave me full perfomance.  It takes work but is well worth it and I may even switch my shell server from OpenBSD!

Re: Laptops which run Arch

Toshiba z835-p330. Very light "ultrabook". Synaptics touchpad; Use intel_backlight for brightness control; You'll get more battery life by activating i915 power saving features. The only problem is the fan noise.
