Re: Dell Inspiron 8200
Hi,
just a couple of weeks ago received mine ... :-)
The sound chip actually is made by Intel, so if U're using a 2.4.x kernel the
correct module to load would be "sound-intel8x0".
U still have to configure Alsa though - just have a look at the example
provided in the documentation!
Dell uses different kinds of chipsets for their Ethernet/Modem-Combocard, my
laptop has a chipset made by 3com - the driver is "3c59x"
(Vortex/Boomerang/Tornado) - i'm only using the Ethernet part, don't know if
the Modem works at all, sorry!
XFree doesn't come with a driver for the NVidia (i got the GeForce2 Go) - but
NVidia provides a sufficiently stable driver ... only make sure /not/ to try
to suspend the display while running X - this will crash the server!
Regards,
Steffen Elste
