Good to hear that.
I just need my xterms and browser. Maybe sometime watch a youtube video,
but that's about it. And for people like me this new Intel graphics
thing seems like a perfect match. Well

Intel i5 Graphics are enormously more powerful than a G550.
A G550 is

That statement is absolutely false. There are plenty of mobos on the market
with Broadcom, Intel, Marvell, nVidia, Via, and other ethernet on board.

To Pasi:
I'm using the xorg stuff - nothing special from Intel.
Sorry for the ambiguity.
To Stan:
I didn't ask for, nor had I received any recommendation - you
must be thinking of someone else. You had responded to a query I raised
earlier when I had problems with the RealTek n

I tried the sound yesterday and it just worked. That was nice.

To Pasi:
Sound has worked without any particular intervention - straight ALSA.
I don't do anything complex with the sound system, though.
As far as the video - while I'm presently using a custom-compiled
kernel, I'm fairly sure I was getting the same rates with the stock 2.6.32 kernel

I got the same kernel from backports and the network chip started to
work. I'm still using old 3c
Hi Pasi:
I have the same MB and processor. I have had a few issues, particularly
with the RealTek chip, but as of now it's running fine - running the
Debian/testing
(squeeze) with the 2.26.32 kernel, and the RealTek driver out of nonfree. It's
so
annoying to have gotten a board thinki

Replying to myself here. Yes, it helps. I searched the closets at the
office and found a dvi cable.
I just retired my 9 year old machine to home use and got a Gigabyte H55-UD3H
motherboard with Intel Core i5 processor. Well, the first impressions
are that maybe I should have done a bit more research since there
are Realtek net and audio chips that might have some issues. Anyway,
I have a 3com car
