Looks like a similar configuration to my Fujitsu Lifebook, which
has the same chipset and is running in 1280x768 just fine on my
etch install.

Hi Luda,
Congratulations on getting your install done. I read your post,
and it sounds like it took a lot more ingenuity than it should
have done. It sounds like the hard disk install from Windows
needs a bit of work...
I also completely sympathize with your comments about system
administration.

Anyway have any experience using a Bluetooth mouse on a notebook
running Debian?
My new notebook does not have any PS/2 style connectors, so I can't
just use one of my existing mice, so it might be nice to go
unwired and give the bluetooth technology a try.
However I want to be reasonably sure it
the server yet, so don't know if it works at all.

Hi Stefan,
Yes, it is the ICH6 chipset (ICH6M).
I gave the daily build a try (with the 'install libata.atapi_enabled=1'
command from SataAtapiHowto) and it seems that whatever was going
wrong with Beta2 has been fixed, as it then succeeded in identifying
the DVD-RAM.
Next problem seems to be th

I am trying to get a system installed on a Fujutsu P7120 notebook, but so
far have not achieved 100% success with any of the distributions I have
tried.
My experience has been as follows:
1. Ubuntu 5.04 (kernel 2.6.10-6-386)
Installation completes but leaves non-working X display
I am thinking about updating to a new small notebook. Anyone have
any particular recommendations?
The Fujitsu Lifebook P series look like about the right size, but the
P7010 for which i have found Debian install instructions has now been
superceeded by the P7120 model. Anyone have any experience w

I've decided to upgrade the HDD in my notebook for my Debian install,
and it looks to me like 100GB is about the best value for money at
the moment...
There isn't much difference in price, and I havn't found much in the
way of reviews online, so I thought I would ask to see if anyone on
this list
I did my NET install (where do I look, incidentally, to find out
which version of Debian - as opposed to kernel - I am using?)
using a 2.6 kernel, and both during and after the install my PCMCIA LAN
card seemed to come up ok...
However when I tried booting on the 2.4.27-2-586tsc kernel that
was al
dule. Should I be
using that too? What does it do?

Well, the getting the audio to work is proving harder than I expected,

The situation is as follow:

As of 24 hours ago I have just dipped a toe into the debian waters by
attempting my first debian install on an old (but still much used)
Libretto 110CT, and wondered if there were any other users of such
'classic' hardware out there...
