</I>I have a desktop, but I am running 32-bit. In that case, I need the
server kernel. The installer knows to do that. Kira says I
misunderstood about the ARM kernel.
There is kernel-netbook and kernel-tmb-laptop in the repos. There is
also a kernel-tmb-desktop, that they recommend if you prefer
performance over battery life. I suspect that if you don't need the
tmb version, you use the ordinary desktop kernel for a laptop, but it
is outside my experience.
You haven't said which hardware you have, but I am guessing it is a
netbook.
Doug.
