[Hausheer, Geoffrey]

I have a Twinhead 600e ultraslim laptop
        I have run Slack and Debian (potato) on it without much of a hitch
        The system has a 6.3GB drive (2GB linux/4GBWin98)
        PcTel Winmodem that doesn't work in linux
        2.5MB Toshiba Video is supported by XFree 3.3.5 and later
                (resolution is only 800x600 though)
        USB (I am working on getting this to work currently.  It should be 
                OK since it uses the Intel chipset)
        External floppy works OK
        Internal DVD-Rom works fine, though I've had no luck playing DVDs
        Touchpad works fine (haven't tried an external mouse though)
        ACPI doesn't do power management in the 2.3 kernels
        APM works fine, but you need to switch to console to power down
while in X
        Maestro 2e sound was poor in 2.2.15 Still playing with it in 2.3.xx
        PCMCIA ethernet card w/ cable-modem works fine (except for
occasional
                startup problems)
        128MB ram/PII366
