I have a Compaq Notebook (14XL244) w/533mhz Celeron, 128mg sdram, 6gig
hd, built-in mouse pad (set to ps2), trident cyberblade video, VIA
VT82C686 sound. All works well except after using Netscape for a while,
mouse pointer and display become unsyncronized. The pointer is offset
to the right from the display (I have to move about 1/2" to the right to
select the control). ONly thing that helps is to halt and reboot.
Other than that all works well even my sound and video - in fact this is
the first distro where all hardware is working.
Good Luck,
John Mitson
