Hi.

I recently installed Mandrake 8.2 on a Toshib 1005-s157 laptop. Everything
seemed to go fine during hte install, but afterwards, a few things dont work:

1. Sound. Does not work, and I cannot look at the hardware in the control
center (see below :-)) The sound was shown currently during install time as
on-board integrated AC-97.

2. Viewing the hardware list from the control center. When I try to do this,
the screen suddenly goes dark, with a single blinking white cursor on the top
left of the screen. I can alt+F1 for a new console, and login, and a ps shows
that all the processes including X are running. When I configured X, it showed
the Intel 830MG video card twice, and asked if both heads must be configured at
the same time (to which I answered yes, not knowing what it meant).

3. usb mouse. I connected my ps/2 keyboard and mouse to a belkin ps/2 -> usb
adapter, and the keyboard works, but the mouse does not. There is a message
about "blacklisted uhci" module message in /var/log/messages. Same problem with
looking at the attached hardware.

I did partition the disk to dual boot into Windows XP and Linux, but that
doesn't seem to be the issue.

Any idea what's wrong?

many thanks,
Vijay
