Help! I am evangelizing and have installed SUSE 7.1 on a friend's
PISMO Powerbook.  She is almost converted, but I need to fix a few
things before she joins the flock.... ;-)

*I want to get X4 running with acceleration.  So far, X3 is loaded by
default and a little play with SaX2 hasn't been much fun :-( Does
anyone have any XFConfig tips that will work in 7.1?

*The hardware clock is set about 5hrs early.  I have been into YaST
1 and changed it to local time, NOT GMT, and to TIMEZONE=Japan
(where we live), but still the clock after boot is wrong.

*How do you stop the damn trackpad from acting as a mouse button?
The slightest press of the trackpad opens and closes windows and
it's very annoying.  She is running KDE2.

*What are the power saving options in SUSE 7.1?  APM doesn't seem to
be installed by default.  

*Is a Zip expansion bay supported?  Is this a simple set up
procedure like an external USB Zip drive is?  Advice would be much
appreciated.

Are there any known issues with the PISMO and SUSE?

Thanks very much for your help.

Joss
