Hiya, list... I have a user at my site that is running an Armada 7800 laptop and would like to run Linux on it. We've been able to track down the specs from Compaq's site, but as yet, we've had nothing but grief trying to configure sound (the machine uses a supported chipset for sound, an ES1371 I think, but I know two soundcards with the same chip can handle things as differently as night and day). I've been looking out and about for information about this, but still no luck - has anyone on this list tried this machine and gotten everything to work like they wanted? advTHANKSance, -cr- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="MS Exchange Server version 5.5.2651.75"> <TITLE>compaq armada 7800 woes...</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hiya, list...</FONT> </P> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a user at my site that is running an Armada 7800 laptop and would like to run Linux on it.
