To be honest I don't have a clue about what I ordered back then. I think an ATI gfx card. Whatever, I will see it when I open the box. :-)

Hi,

Friday morning, back at work. That sucks. Anyway, the A1 is in a fine shape. But I got some troubles booting the Installer CD. First indication was a badly burned cd so I re-burned it again. But still the same prob. So it is something else. Now I am ruling out several things that can cause the prob. Tonight I wil go on with it since I ran out of time early this morning.

What was in the package that you ordered?


The SE (G3) with 128 MB Memory, 40 GB Maxtor HD, ATI RADEON 7000.

It's really great to work with it. Now I only need to get it to boot cd's. :-)

To get around this 'Magic' error just type 'ide reset' and the cd will be read.
 

I did but does not work. Sometimes I even get a bunch of error numbers while doing a ide reset. It must be something else. :-)

Hi,

Short update:

After 1 day I got my A1 to boot the installer cd. It was a memory problem.

Now I am in search for a new driver for the Ati Radeon 7000 to get the X-windows system setup.

There are drivers but I got some probs doing certain things wich is a result of the driver. So I want to make sure I got the latest driver.

Any more news?


I got Suse running. I am trying to get KDE installed. At least my gfx card works under X. Allthough sometimes it shows strange output, even in the console.
