Hi,
I've recently got hold of a(n ancient) sony vaio PCG-F304 and it appears to
have the pII SMBALERT# bug - when I attempt to install debian the laptop
shuts down immediately after detecting the drives. This is reported to be
due to the heat sensor reporting an incorrect value. Has anyone heard of a
workaround anywhere? I've scoured google to no avail...there's a workaround
for win98 (disabling the power management chip) but I really don't want to
waste the laptop on win98!
cheers,
