Bug#514608: installation-reports: Successful install on Acer emachines D620 using Lenny RC2



Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal



-- Package-specific info:

Boot method: Lenny RC2 CD
Image version: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/lenny_di_rc2/amd64/iso-cd/debian-Lenny-DI-rc2-amd64-businesscard.iso
Date: <Date and time of the install>

Machine: Acer emachines D620
Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>


Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Initial boot:           [O]
Detect network card:    [O] both wired and wireless NICs detected
Configure network:      [O] wired NIC configured (see below re wireless)
Detect CD:              [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives:     [O]
Partition hard drives:  [O] successfully shrank Vista partition
Install base system:    [O]
Clock/timezone setup:   [O]
User/password setup:    [O] chose no root login - see below
Install tasks:          [ ] I skip this step
Install boot loader:    [O] chose GRUB legacy
Overall install:        [O]

Comments/Problems:

Three main issues with this install: 

1. The wireless NIC is the Atheros AR242x, which suffers from the "noise floor
calibration timeout" bug. So it did not work at all until I built a 2.6.28.x
kernel from source. After that it works fine.

2. The sound chip is the ATi SBx00 Azalia, which uses the snd-hda-intel driver
(ALC268 codec) but does not work properly. It did not work at all until I put 
"options snd-hda-intel model=acer" in /etc/modprobe.d/sound, and even after 
that it still gives "HDA Intel: probe of 0000:00:14.2 failed with error -12" on
boot. Music is now fine but sound effects are very crackly and noisy.

3. I installed Gnome, and all its admin applets require a root password - but I
followed the recommendation not to allow root logins, and use sudo instead. Is
there a relevant group permission which allows me to use these applets without
a root password??

Thanks,

CC
