    There was recently a similar thread but it didn't go anywhere. You should probably post what model # you have.

    That's like asking "Is anyone running this game on a computer?" We need specs.

    I dunno why you couldn't run linux on a clevo...maybe head over to the clevo/sager subforums and see what they say.

    There have been a fair amount of howto reports on running Linux on both Clevo laptops, as well as Clevo models under other brand names like Sager. You can look through them to see which models were tested by others.

    Tuxmobil Clevo
    Tuxmobil Sager
    Linux on Laptops Clevo
    Linux on Laptops Sager

    Lastly since these reports tend to get out of date quickly, (although some of the information is still useful even if it's regarding running Linux on an older laptop model), you can simply Google the name of the laptop model and Linux and see if someone has an updated blog post with a howto already written. If you're question was whether or not someone on the board has a Clevo laptop and is running Linux on it, maybe the best way to get responses to these kinds of questions is to visit the sub-forum for the particular model. Like the Sager and Clevo NBR forum.

    Good Luck..
