The Linux for Laptops website has a couple of pointers for Linux on the
Acer Travelmate 200T, which might be similar. Check out this page:

>Newbie Alert!

>I have been trying to get a stable Linux setup onto  my laptop for a while
now.� I have an Acer Travelmate 202T.� I have  tried RedHat7(7.0) and
OpenLinux2.4 >- both came with one of those monster  books.� I also
downloaded Peanut9.2 from the internet.� Peanut seemed  to be the best - at
least it more or less set up the >sound card from the word  go.

>The problem (and it seems to happen more regularly  with Peanut than
RedHat is that when I start KDE the mouse goes a bit  loopy.� Usually it
keeps jumping >back to one of the corners -top�right  or bottom left.� This
does not happen all the time but often enough to make  me want to chuck it.
When it works - it >WORKS! :)

>Any suggestions much appreciated.

>Stu
