| If not sure,if all the hardware works with debian maybe best to do first a dual-boot installation. To leave a windows installation there, too. -------------------------------------------------- When debian works it is definitely more stable than any windows. --------------------------------------------------- If you'll try with the later kernels , such as 2.6.28 there is some more hardware than with the regular kernel. for example digital tv usb boxes. I'm now running 2.6.28-1-686 (Debian 2.6.28-2~snapshot.12850) kernel with my hp laptop, trying to get a digi tv box working. I didn't have any problems with the regular kernel until I tried an anysee E30 digitv usb. Still that digi tv is not working, but I just realized that it is a hw problem, that anysee doesn't work with usb 1 ports, which my machine has got. I will install pcmcia usb 2 ports and see if it will start working then. - hv --- On Thu, 3/12/09, Robert Smith <r_a_smith3530@sbcglobal.net> wrote: From: Robert Smith <r_a_smith3530@sbcglobal.net> |
