Hello!
haviong trouble getting my latest bought laptop running....
its a medion si 2010, and neither debian testing install dvd nor knoppix
3.8 are able to boot it....
after the message uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel.
nothing happens....
i supsect it has something to do with the fact that the graphics card is
sharing the main memory?
fetched from an italian site the specs of the thing:
