Hi there

 

Be more specific man , when you actually ask something like the way you did noone will answer you,you're just gonna be ignored

 

So place your problem ( be specific n' not in general )or your worries and you'll get ASAP a reply

 

 

Farewell

Okay ... And ... ?

 

Place here your problem , i've already saw the sites you've mentioned

 

I can help you with ati radeon 7500 mobility , dvd frame loss during

 

playback and installation hang ups due to usb/autodetection devs

 

What are you trying to install and what's your problem ?

 

Farewell

Hehe, GhostSong, go back and look at who posted what.

 

kapoorrohit, those links I posted will help you set up Linux on your laptop. But be forewarned, you have the same problem as I. The Radeon chip in the 900 series is completely unsupported. It will, however, work with the generic VESA driver for XFree86. Good luck!
