Hi, all.

I just tried the SuSE Linux 8.2 LiveEval CD on my PCG-R505EL, but with only
limited success.

1.  SaX2 was unable to configure X for better than 640x480 mode.

2.  When I tried to configure the battery monitor applet, the system reported
that:

     "Your computer seems to have a partial ACPI installation.  ACPI was
      probably enabled...."

It goes on to suggest that I rebuild the kernel.

So, what's the deal?  I thought SuSE 8.2 was supposed to work "out of the 
box".  Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for any info.
