FYI: Compaq Presario 2700

["Francesco P. Lovergine" <frankie@debian.org>]

Just installed my new 2715 beast.
It works quite good with woody. A few secondary problems: 

* Ethernet card (eepro100) works only with e100-source pkg or 
  current 2.4.18 kernel stock module.
	
	This can be a problem in installation by net: woody bootfloppies
	come with kernel 2.2.20. I personally installed sid 
	using an additional PCMCIA pcnet card.

* ATI Mobility Radeon M6 LY is not supported in accel mode under X 4.1.0
	
	You can use radeon frambuffer/dri mode (1400x1050). 
	It's not a runner, but it works. 
	You can wait for next 4.2.0 package. Or compile
	on your own the current xfree86, which works with that new
	chipset. Branden probably will release 4.2.0 after woody release.

	This is true for 1700 series also.


* M-Systems Disk-on-chip requires a custom 2.4 kernel. 

	Those modules are not built in the current woody/sid stock kernel.
	Not tried.

* Builtin modem is Conexant HSF

	Should work with Conexant module.
	Not tried.

* ACPI is the usual pain.

All other devices work great.
