HowTo - install Debian
getting prepared
I used the pre-installed XP to install a Debian-Installer (developer version) as I didnt want to launch a bootable usbstick
installation
I for one installed lenny with Xfce which was at this very moment “testing”
as I didnt have wireless supported I did everything hardwired
I wont get into installing debian here itself as there are enough howtos to refere to
after installation, you will recognize everything working out of the box
apart of some of the Fn-Keys, your wireless (Atheros AR242x) and your sound (Intel HDA ICHY7 Realtek ALC272)
well you will have sound output but no input and not with all functions you could have (mute, control)
wireless
you need to build a vanilla kernel your own to get the latest ath5k drivers and anything else you might not have with a current distro-kernel
sound
I have alsa installed and just build the latest alsa-drivers, -libs and -utils from source
keyboard
NOT FINISHED YET I have recognized that some of the keys are mapped for “press” but not for “release”
backlight
you may install xbacklight
apt-get install xbacklight
but that will not help you much… the first step is to max out backlight intensity while no boot is initiated (bios→grub/lilo/bootloader→boot)
you may set it in bios as default an include a
xbacklight -set 60
to your startup scripts
