I set up an extra page for the Debian installation an a nx7000 here.
I installed debian etch via netinstal and made an dist-upgrade to sid.
Then i fetched the firmware (the driver has been instaled for default in etch) for the wireless lan card from ipw2100 an copied in the directory given in the documentation (/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ or /lib/firmware/ )and in the documentation are some important options for kernel compiling.
I compiled a kernel with help of debian-administrators and the options of the following intel article.
Really good article about Centrino Speedstep technology.
http://www.intel.com/cd/ids/developer/a ... .htm?prn=Y
Path where you can read and set the cpu-settings: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq
Now I installed powersaved and kpowersave.
With aptitude install cupsys my Kyocera mita FS-1000+ works fine.
So far it's an pretty good linux (almost) out of the box.
the SD-card-reader
Here I found an interresting homepage: Winbond-howto
With
modprobe wbsd
modprobe mmc-block
it works
bluetooth (I don't testet it yet, perhaps it works already)
It works. But when I tried to compile the gnome bluetooth tool it wont work at all. (It's not available as an debian-package)
Things I'd like to work:
clone or enlarge the display (I've read this is possible with the X.org radeon driver or with an driver from ati)
The driver from ati wont work at my machine.
3D-acceleration
IrDA
special buttons (like suspend)
