Hi all, I've created a page where I'm putting info about installing Slackware Linux 11 on the A105-S4284, which is here: http://home.comcast.net/~fbui/Linux-on-ToshibaA105.html I've run into a few problems, particularly the SATA controller. The newer Intel driver doesn't work so I have to use the older, deprecated one, and that driver doesn't use DMA so it is quite slow. 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7 Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller IDE (rev 02) If anyone has any info on how to get it working without using the deprecated driver, I would appreciate learning how. Thanks, Zack
