Re: Debian an Acer Travelmate 291lmi
Hi !
I installed debian on my Acer Travelmate 291 LCi-M11 recently. It worked very
well out of the box with Joans help page. (see also
http://perso.wanadoo.es/jtur/AcerTM290/acertravelmate290.html, Joan added some
of my information recently). But it can happen with framebuffer devices that
you automatically switch to TV/crt mode. Try plugging a Monitor in, or
switching fb off. ;-)
What a kind of variant (graphics chip) do you have ?
Cheers,
Sebastian

Hello,
last week i bought this notebook (from Mediamarkt) and wanted experience
linux the first time. Because i want to understand linux i wanted to
choose debian. But i have a critical problem. I can't start the
installation. :( The cd and even dvd (Book: Debian GNU/Linux Peter
Ganten) are booting and i can choose which kernel i would like to
install. I type bf24 and the install seems to start, but not very well.
Usually u see Tux after a few seconds on a new scrren (i tested this
with my internet pc) but my laptops screen stays black. Anyone knows
what i can do? Other distribution work without a problem (e.g. fedora,
knoppix).
Hope you can help me.
MfG Jan Koch
