Adventures with a SUSE Linux-Powered OQO Palmtop

Friday, April 28, 2006

Ha, I seem to be SuSE happy today (perhaps because the SuSE 10.1 goldmaster should be released soon). Anyways, another interesting story involving SuSE Linux and a palmtop PC.
"After seeing the specs for the OQO model 01+ tablet palmtop PC, I knew I had to put SUSE 10.0 Linux on it and do a review. OQO currently offers only a Windows XP version.
Would SUSE even install? Would the tablet work? What are the challenges? Where would you use Linux on such a small package? Would Linux techies even be interested? All good questions that you'd probably like answered. This is my adventure of putting SUSE Linux on the little micro PC. I also carried the machine around the recent LinuxWorld Conference in Boston, for a few days. To say the OQO/SUSE Linux combination is a "geek magnet" is to overstate the obvious."
Read story here.
