I think you'll have no access to power settings and your machine will be
power hungry and too hot.

Right now, I'm running debian with kernel 2.4 without the speedstep
suport and it's fixed at 1.2GHz.. The problem is that from time to time
the machine starts its cooler even if I don't give its processor any
job..

As I see, this machine is made for running WinXP with it's energy
support enabled or a linux 2.6.x with a special compiled kernel.. Other
than these will cause overheat and too much power consumption..

I'm working in a kernel 2.6 setup for it and I'd like to see configs
people from the list have made.. Please, mail it to me ..

Have you ever thought about using some kind of emulation for running
your Win98/DOS apps under linux?
