 Linux on an ASUS Degatto (D1)

The ASUS Degatto is a Desktop Replacement - a portable
PC which has no internal battery, and uses a
non-mobile CPU. Manufacturer page here. It's built
around the SiS 650 chipset. Here in the Philippines,
some dealers will sell it without Windows, which is a
big savings.

I installed Red Hat Linux 9 from CD. No surprises. The
video card was detected as a Generic VESA device. The
sound system was properly detected as i810 compatible.

I read this very detailed page by the SiS driver
maintainer and upgraded my driver sis_drv.o. I did not
have to use his XF86Config file, as
redhat-config-xfree86 did the trick. I'm now running
at 1024x768 on the 14" edition of the LCD.

The onboard Broadcom bcm4401 Ethernet was not detected
on installation. I found this discussion which pointed
me to the Broadcom-supplied driver. While the
manufacturer-provided driver is a hack, the new driver
being developed is for kernel 2.5 only.

The PCtel onboard modem cannot be run with the sound
card at the same time. This stops me from using it. I
get the "modem not responding" error as described in
the FAQ.

The PCMCIA slot is working, which I use for a modem
card when I have to dial out. I haven't tested the
USB2 and IEEE 1394 ports.

The maintainer of acpi4asus added support for the
chipset when I submitted my info. I have only tested
the LCD Brightness support.
