Well ... to me it does not seem like a conflict in my hardware because as i said before Fedora 7, Opensuse 10.3 and Ubuntu Gutsy (BETA) seems to work perfectly well with this hardware configuration. Only Debian has trouble to work on it - can not even let the kernel boot. Then my conclusion is that it is Debian related and not hardware related. But strange because Ubuntu is for a big part also just Debian. Anyway thank you for your response. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
