Compaq F572US Locks Up with FC7
by Jim Duda 01 Dec '07

01 Dec '07

I have a Compaq F572US, with AMD Athlon Turin X86 with nvidia graphics adapter. I really like the laptop, however, it occasionally hits a hard lock up and I have to reset and reboot. The computer runs really slow with Windows Vista, but works fine with Fedora :-) I'm not sure how to tell if this is a software configuration problem or I have purchased a lemon. I'm running latest Fedora FC7 Moonshine, up-to-date. My kernel boot options are noapic irqpoll noapci Can anyone share experiences with Compaq F572US laptop computers? Thanks, Jim

HP pavilion 6541ev sound problem
by Dimitris M. 26 Oct '07

Hello, I have no sound and the mute/unmute button on my HP dv6541ev remaing orange (muted).By pressing it i can see the onscreen sound display mute and unmute,but the button remains orange at all times. Now,when I start a song/movie it opens up the corresponding player normally and i can see the equalizer going up and down which means the song/movie is playing. However i can hear no sound from either the speakers or headphones. My laptop specifications are: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?docname=c01179103&cc=us&… __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

If laptops suspend and resumes ok - do I need to say so it goes to some whitelist? I'm testing Fedora 8 test 3 with some laptops and see that suspend and resume works ok on 2 laptops and I'm willing to test it on some more models.

Re: wireless

Hi Jay Thanks for the response. It does not have to be USB but I would prefer it to be USB. I found this wireless linux site: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices/USB which lists a number of USB wireless devices as being supported. Is this not the case? Am I reading the list incorrectly? Maybe the USB support is something new to the 2.6.23 kernel. The home page for linuxwireless has the following news blurb dated Oct 10, 2007: "Linux 2.6.23 was released today. On the wireless front, a variety of fixes and improvements were contributed all over the place. The biggest news items are the inclusion of the rtl8187 driver, which supports USB devices based on the RTL8187 chipset, and zd1211rw enhancements to support devices based on the Atheros AR5007UG USB chipset." Which PCMCIA wireless adapter would you recommend? Thanks Marv > Marv, > > Does it have to be USB? USB wireless, for the most part is unsupported in > Linux.

Gnome Pilot Doesn't Seem To Work With Palm Treo 680
by Jeffrey D. Yuille 11 Oct '07

11 Oct '07

Hello, I had recently install Fedora 8t3 on my IBM ThinkPad T-30. Everything seemed to work fine except for being able to sync my Palm Treo 680. When starting the Gnome Pilot wizard, it couldn't find my device. This problem seems to be the same as it is in Fedora 7. Will this program be able to work with the Palm Treo and will it be able to allow you to sync consistently out of the box with Fedora 8t3? I have previously filed bugs in Bugzilla but it seems that no one is working on this.
