Sony F340 sucess!



Things are going good!

I used joeyh's stable-updates tecra boot disks which I needed for my
Xircom Realport pcmcia network card.  Once I got base installed I set up
apt and went through dselect and made my selections.  Exited and and
used 'apt-get -d dselect-upgrade' and went to sleep since I am only
connected to the net via 56k modem.  Woke up to find all was downloaded.
Started the install and configure without any hassles.  Now I just have
to figure out how I want to set this up since it will be intermediatly
connected to the network. I also dowloaded the XFCom_NeoMagic X server
and it works like a charm.  

No questions for now. But I am sure I will have some as I get more into
it.  Specifically I see questions comming concerning APM/ACPI.  

Now I off to build a custom kernel 2.2.12 with the NeoMagic sound driver
patch.

Thanks all for your tips,

Brian Servis
