On the HP series, due to a hardware problem in the keyboard, it locks just ast you load the kernel... solution: Boot with a patched keyboard kernel (the one that does not test the hardware...) google points.. Again I recomend the 6.1 kernel... and gnome.. 2.14 or 2.15 is ligher than kde, and easy for the end user.... 2.15 with HAL implementation is amazing.... We notice here that users (those who just want to use the computer) does better with gnome (less options, less thing to confitgure....) They just want to read email, use office, som multemedia... internet... and a groupware package linked to the evolution ... in my case, the open-xchange software.... Lenzi
