Linux on the Inspiron 4150
Preface
This is a survey about Linux related hardware features of the Inspiron 4150. I don't try to explain the usual installation details (for instance, which partitions I have made).

Installation
On my Inspiron 4150 I have installed the Debian Woody/Sarge Linux distribution.
