This thread is about the computers on which you run this distribution porteus 3.0. Here we are talking about linux compatibility with desktop, laptop, tablet or mini notebook.

It would be good that you identify:
1) you box,
2) the specific OS that you use 32bit or 64bit
3) your computer specifications a link to the manufacturer or lspci specifications or both
4) some issues of compatibility or incompatibility

I have 3 laptops. I like to have a spare computer (I keep the old ones) at home and so to have one at work. As the third and oldest one is also set with porteus. It is ready to be given as a gift.

They all work all out of the box with porteus 3.0.

1) toshiba satellite z930. Specifications:

2) ultraslim MSI 340X. Specifications:

3) pavilion dv1540ca. Specifications:

This laptop also works fine on ubuntu or elementary os.
