Here you go. Suspend-to-RAM:: 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] Modem:: With the [attachment:ModemData.txt output] of [http://linmodems.org linmodems.org] scanModem utility I figured out that the modem has a [http://www.pcidatabase.com/vendor_details.php?id=1616 Intel MD563X-HaM chipset]. Information about Linux driver can be found [http://64.126.95.102:8080/gromitkc/intel/intel_563x_ham.html here]. Unfortunately it doesn't work with 2.6.x kernel versions. = 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 . . .

I could remember the same problem with Windoze. * I think I found the problem: After {{{cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling}}} I realized that the CPU sometimes runs in T15-state.
