Everything works great out of the box except the CDROM (I got the cd burner, not the dvd burner). I had to patch and recompile my kernel to get DMA to work. The patch is simple, just a few #define's and #undef's. After that, everything runs great. Jim Carter has a great site about the Inspiron 6000d and Linux (it includes the DMA patch): http://www.math.ucla.edu/~jimc/insp6000/index.html > An aside, my local PC vendor charges (last I checked) about $250 - $300 to > install Linux on their hardware. Oh my god, that is an outrage. How do I get in on that shite? =) > Erik -- C
