I haven't a Radeon GPU for sure, it's a VIA all integrated KT400 (if I remember correctly) with an Athlon XP Processor 2200+, 512 MB of ram, 20 GB of HD drive.
Ubuntu 9.04 worked till the previous 30 GB HD failed. As far as I can tell the new one works fine. I don't know how to disable hdparm, if you tell me (I'm a newby) I'll try as soon as I can.
