(working...) You need to figure out what kind of hardware is in it, a good first try would be checking the output of "lspci", "lsusb", and dmesg. Anything you can find would be of help, even if it's just a product ID. The alternative is to skim through the manual after any specifications, or carefully opening it up (voiding your warranty?) and checking the hardware. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
