This laptop has served as a test machine for several OSes.
- I think I have succeeded to configure sound in a previous installation of
NetBSD, but I've not tested nor configured sound after the last NetBSD
re-installation.
- Present OS is NetBSD 3.1 with a stock GENERIC_LAPTOP kernel.
- For me, pcmcia ethernet card worked out of the box. Are you sure yours
is a true (16 bits) pcmcia one and not a cardbus (32 bits) one? This Dell
is not cardbus compatible...
- X11 needs deactivation of acceleration and activation of hardware
cursor, though the cursor is not working perfectly in the right part of the
screen...
