compatibility
It's easier to specify all things that don't work. Here you go.
Suspend to RAM isn't available (cat /sys/power/state doesn't lists mem) - I think it's a problem with [http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php DSDT]
- I didn't check the modem
installation
The installation of Debian Etch (with [http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ Debian Installer] snapshot 06/29/06) worked smoothly. You only have to download a CD image and burn it. Start your notebook, boot from CD by pressing Esc and follow the installers instructions.BR Some important points and how I took my choice:
Partition disks
Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB) --------------------------------------------------------------------- hda1 Boot Primary Linux ext3 [/] 6999,72 hda5 Logical Linux Swap / Solaris 764,96 hda6 Logical Linux ext3 [/home] 32292,45
Debian software selection:
[*] Desktop environment . . . [*] Laptop [*] Standard system
- Install the Grub boot loader to the master boot record
That's it. Reboot and login.
configuration
video card: hardware acceleration
With [http://packages.debian.org/testing/x11/xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-ati (1:6.5.8.0-1)] and hardware acceleration enabled I have several problems:
Running at depth 24 freezes the machine ([http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=366114 bug report]) - a solution is to change the depth to 16
Somethimes the machine slows down with no reason. top shows me a load average > 3. I'm not sure but I think it's also a problem with hardware acceleration. I'll check this without acceleration.
