After several testing, i managed to install it. The lens/laser of the  
dvd-rom was dirty. After cleaned it, i could install it easily.
should have thinked about it, when laptop been away for a long time.

Now, the problems i managed to hit.

* after graphical installation, no problem, everything went smooth.  
But first boot, i got x responding too fast, disabled for 5 mins.
Checked xorg and have "nv" as driver. As i should, but couldent boot.
Changed to "vesa", made it impossible to boot instead. Kinda gave me  
few vertical lines on the screen only (left to right)

* alot of help from ermo, made my laptop bootable with "nvidia"  
drivers, first start, had touchpad disabled. Unable to enable it. Even  
looked in gconf-editor and disable/enable, no luck, it was dead.

(  /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled true ) in gconf-editor

* Sound was disabled from start, after increased sound, no sound came out.
As i wrote in #foresight-devel, the .35 kernel made my laptop  
impossible to play sound from speakers. I could get a tiny sound from  
headphones, like the lowest sound there is, even if everyhing on  
alsamixer and everywhere else were on max.
The last time i had sound, was probably last .33 kernel.

Firefox didnt manage to play youtube, load it as it should and become grey.
Installed chromium and youtube worked fine (didnt update flash-player)

That's about what i managed to find from latest iso we got available.
