Compaq Armada 1500c Laptop update for i386-laptop.html

Just installed 3.9-stable on a new-to-me clunky old Compaq Armada.

The exact model number is: Armada 1500c C300/T/4000/D/M/3

works better than the Armada 1573DM described currently on the laptop
webpage:

- APM works fine (tested zzz, sleep button on laptop, resumes at console
and in X)
- PCMCIA works fine
- Memory detects fine, no adjustments necessary
- xorg.conf for the 1573DM linked at i386-laptop.html works fine if I
comment out the "Load 'speedo'" Module line
- sound works fine through MPG123; couldn't get MPG321 to work ("Can't
find a suitable libao driver (Is device in use?)" error.

I assume that the above success represents improvement from 3.7 to 3.9,
comparing how the 1573DM worked to how the 1500c now works. Thanks so
much, keep up the great work!
