Revision as of 11:43, 4 January 2009

Before installation

  • switched to discrete graphics (Intel 4500MHD) in the BIOS. I did't want to mess with the ATI card because of the driver issues.

Installation

Used an (amd64) USB image (hd-media) and the Lenny RC1 netinstall ISO. Installation worked flawlessly, the Gigabit Ethernet adapter was detected and configured. Installed without X, switched to sid in sources.list and then went for X and Gnome.

I installation I compiled a vanilla 2.6.28 that I'm currently running.

Working

  • Gigabit Ethernet (e1000 module)
  • 5300AGN wireless (iwlagn) with CRDA userspace regulation
  • Intel graphics, driver from sid repository
  • suspend to ram (echo mem > /sys/power/state OR Fn+F4)
  • sound (HDA) + volume control buttons

Not working
