/ "A. Demarteau (linux rules!)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say: | 1. how does the speedtrap thing work
What's the speedtrap thing? | 2. does the internal modem work with linux It's a winmodem, alas. Lucent have a driver, but it only works with the 2.2.12 (or thereabouts) kernel. I gave up and bought a PCMCIA modem. | 3. for the selectbay oce of the choices is a LS-120 drive what the hell is | it? One of the big super drives; with 120Mb capacity, I'd guess. I dunno, I got the regular floppy. | 4. do sound and X work without too much teaking? They work, but require some tweaking. | 5. is the IRDA port supported and has anyone tested it yet? I haven't tried, I disabled mine in BIOS. One less interrupt to fight about. | 6. is the port-replicator supportable under linux? Sorry, I didn't get one. | 7. any other notes of interrest in the combination linux and this laptop?
