  1. I have a toshiba satellite S105 laptop and i have always want to put a debian distro on it. I really want to learn how to use debian. So far the biggest problem i ran into is xfree and my wireless network. I've installed debian 3.0 rc1 and it comes with the old xfree 4.2 i think. I have a radeon 7500 which is not support by the old xfree. I know it's supported in the new xfree but i dont know how up get the new xfree with out upgrading the kernel. I've also ran into getting my mouse to work. I think i need to upgrade the kernel anyway because i've been looking at website to get my Belkin F5D6020 ver.2 wireless pcmcia card to work requires it. I had some success with bonzai linux but didn't get too far. I've also downloaded a sarge image and ran into error before i could do a base install. Can anyone point me to a helpfull toshiba laptop tutorial and what i should install to get it running or a debian distro that i should try.
