Guide to Installing Fedora Core 6 on an HP Pavilion dv2000 series laptops.
Bookmark and Share

The specific model used in this instructions is the HP Pavilion dv2221us Laptop. Other models in this series should be very similar. Fedora Core 6 installation is pretty painless on this Laptop, setting up the video requires minor work, setting up the wireless requires some more work, pretty much everything else works out of the box (Integrated web cam didn't work out of the box, I haven't tried to set it up).

This model is marketed as an entertainment unit. Personally I chose it because it was by far the best deal I could find in a 2GB laptop. I am mainly using it for serious software development (server side Java, not exactly known for being light on resources), not for entertainment. For this reason, I haven't gotten around to setting up some of the multimedia hardware included (webcam & integrated microphone). Perhaps when I have some time I will get around to trying to set those up (if you or someone you know has successfully or unsuccessfully tried to set them up, feel free to drop me a note).
