AMD64 Processors with 64 bit Linux
I'm going to college in the fall and have all but decided to buy a 64 bit AMD based notebook. I am curious as to which notebooks do well with 64 bit Linux (I'm in physics and a lot of our department computers run linux, so I will be at least dual booting linux, if not running purely Linux) I want to know if there are any driver compatability issues, unsupported parts in any notebooks, or any other problems putting 64 bit linux on any of these 64 bit AMD notebooks (Sager 4750 at Powernotebooks.com, Batallion S and SL Computers from Ibuypower.com) or if there is another AMD 64 bit system anybody thinks is very good. Also, what is the best linux distro in conjunction with 64 bit technology, who is the farthest ahead and has the most support for 64 bit lappys especially.
Thank you for all your help. ~Lyuokdea |
