Description:
|
Sony Vaio Laptop known as a GRX-550 in US.
Mobile P4 1.6GHz, DDR-RAM, 30Gb hard disk, ATI Radeon 7500. Uses ACPI so I recommend installing SuSE linux. SuSE spend a lot of time and money checking that Sony laptops work with their take on Linux, trust me it's worth it. ACPI is a nightmare to get working - SuSE installed straight out of the box. Also have a D-link DWL-650+ wireless card working with no probs.
