Everything worked like a charm with two exceptions:
- No USB devices were being recognized. I had to manually edit and load
the USB driver in /etc/modprobe.conf.dist. After that, no problems. 2) I'm running FC2T2 on a Thinkpad T40 and I can't get sound to work for the life of me. I try to manually load the i810 sound driver ( I think it's snd-intel8x0 under FC2T2 ) but it can't be found. Can anyone confirm whether I'll have to rebuild the kernel to get the driver?
My installation is an upgrade from FC1 and following rawhide - (currently with kernel-2.64-1.305). I believe sound & USB were configured correctly by kudzu for me on the T40
$ cat /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 e1000 alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0 install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || : remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1 || : alias usb-controller ehci-hcd alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd
After boot - I crank up the volume with gnome-volume-control (volume,pcm) - and I can play mp3 files.
I had tried an external usb device earlier last week with kernel-2.6.4-1.300. I was able to connect to a usb drive enclosure with a dvd-rw drive in it.
However there are mails in this list about usb problems with kernel-2.64-1.305
