Hi all, I hope this is the right list for utterly and incredibly new Linux newbies. I had another distribution my machine but it was too old to recognize most of my hardware to I gave it away. I'm waiting now for Debian 2 to start anew but I wanted to be sure my hardware will work with this one. Hope you can help.
I have a Logitech TrackMan Marble (same connector as the standard PS/2 port mouse), an HP DeskJet 820 CSE on LPT1, an ATI Video Expression+ (Direct Draw) video card, and a Sound III 336SP Sound Card and 333 modem combination (OEM stuff). The other Linux either didn't recognize any of them or I couldn't figure out how to make it; actually I never had the chance to try the modem. The other Linux did recognize both my hard drives and my CD. Sorry to be so wordy but I'd rather not set it all up again only to find I can't use it. Anyway, is there a way to find out specifically if Debian 2 will be able to support my hardware? Thanks much.
