I just purchased a Compaq 3000 (3017CL) notebook and plan to install Red Hat.
I had planned on installing RH9 but it seems I have to start messing with rebuilding the kernel and a bunch of other stuff to get ACPI, the touchpad, built-in wireless, etc. all working.
I was wondering if any and/or all of these are already in Severn (thus gaining beta problems but avoiding kernel rebuilding, etc.)?
Or perhaps using the 2.6 kernel rpms available for RH9?
Anyone tread this path already and have any advice they could offer?
Thanks R.Parr, RHCE Temporal Arts
