> I'm running Debian on an N505VE, and everything is going fine so far. I did an ftp install because the cd's I had were for slink. I did need to grab X 3.3.6 to get X working (the debian ftp gave me 3.3.2 which doesn't really work). I bought a D-Link modem/ethernet card which works great. I'm still working on sound (actually I've only tried to configure it for potato once, I haven't put that much effort in yet. It worked fine with slink.). There are a bunch of good sites for help. I found www.914fan.net/vaio the most helpful.
