[newbie] 8.2 on Dell laptop

2002-03-23 Thread Bill Winegarden

Hi,
I decided to do a full install on my Dell I8000 laptop. A few
glitches.

#1.I had to choose a Dell 1400 laptop display in the monitor selection
screen..almost all others give this error/tmp/imm.o init_module no
such device
Even so, I use a 800x600 resolution during the install but it
defaults to the 1400 resolution very tinyctrl/alt/+ or - have no
effect

#2.In Konqueror when I try to access /mnt , it freezes. I think this may
be because I have 2 cdroms in the laptop and no floppy. When I go to
shutdown I get several error messages like  umount : /mnt/floppy :
illegal seek..I have to do a hard power off..


I could reinstall the floppy drive (it was there when I installed 8.1) and
then once installed, I could pull it and re-install the cdrw

Those are my first couple of bugs to be resolved.

Any Dell laptop users out there on 8.2?


Thanks and regards,
Bill W.
