But there is nothing wrong with the hardware or the BIOS. kubuntu has no problem with the network, but screws up the vide config. debian testing (netinstall) misconfigures eth0 knoppix gets it nearly all right but the hd install doesn't leave a clean system and it failed to detect my USB mouse. debian stable misconfigures X. Upgrading to etch (and xorg) still leaves it miscondfigured. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does not produce a usable configuration. Considering that the testing netinstall I used in July/August 2005 worked perfectly on the same hardware, I am getting really, really hacked off about this (as would you if you ended up having to use a Windoze system in class every day). Any suggestions - that take into account the functioning nature of the hardware - welcome. (Oh - does anyone have a year-old-or-so testing install CD?) -- |Deryk Barker, Computer Science Dept. | Music does not have to be understood| |Camosun College, Victoria, BC, Canada| It has to be listened to. | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |phone: +1 250 370 4452 | Hermann Scherchen. | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
