Interesting. Mine worked off the bat with 2.4.x. There are some issues
with it though, as I remember reading something about it on the Mepis
site (either mepis.org or mepislovers.org). My issue started when I
wanted to switch between the "eraser head" on the road and an USB
wireless at home. No easy way. Mepis DOES have a new recently released
iso out there that may address some of these problems, but I have not
had time to take a look at it though.
I've been very happy with mepis overall though, as most things (even a
wireless nic!) "just worked".
I recently bought a D-Link DWL-122 with the intention of using it on my
Compaq IA1 ("internet appliance" flashed to Midori Linux). So far, it
has not worked on the 7400/Ubuntu or the IA1/Midori.
I also bought a USB to traditional keyboard and mouse adapter for the
IA1 (the infra-red keyboard is of limited use). I was surprised to
find that it worked both with the IA1 and the 7400/Ubuntu/2.4.x. That
is, Ubuntu/2.4.x does not work with the eraser head, but has no
problem with a USB mouse.
I posed my 2.4.x eraser head problem on a Mepis forum and the only
response I got was "don't use 2.4.x, use 2.6.x".
