I use an HP Pavillion N5190, which is nearly identical to the N5270. X Windows works great as long as you grab the latest S3 Savage driver from www.probo.com/timr/savagemx.html. In fact, under XF86 4.0.2, it has Xv support for playing full screen video, but no 3D acceleration. The built in 10/100 nic and sound cards work in -current and -stable, though not in 4.2-release. The modem is a Winmodem and doesn't work with anything. Overall, I'm very happy with it and would recommend it to anybody. Scott > -----Original Message----- > From: Eric I.
