Google search only turns up the above mailing list and ads to buy a new Compaq laptop
The people on the mailing list mention that kernel 2.5.49 seems to have fixed this bug. Does anyone know how to install Linux w/ this kernel? Making a cd w/ the files, etc.
Hi !
Has one as said I have a very rude installation guide for Presario 904EA - http://david.aragao.name/laptop
The mailling list you were speaking about is: http://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/pipermail/linuxpresario900/
There people are trying to get the laptop 100% compatible with linux. But I'm running mdk9.0 with VESA driver for X server, network card is fine,etc,etc. on Presario 904EA, already !!
There is a spanish installation guide also for presario 905 at: http://www.mobilix.org/mylaptops.html
oh, and http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/compaq.html doesn't have to have 900 series to be helpfull. I installed my laptop using information from presario 700 series from there.
Finally take a look at groups.google.com and not to www.google.com and you will find more information and less adds.
Regards,
David
