The Toshiba Satelite 205CDS needs to be added to that list as well. (I know that one is not on there. Don't remember the URL however. Getting X to run on it was an adventure. (A certain amount of chip override is needed.) I had three people at ApacheCon ask me for the XConfig for that model.
Not really a kernel issue however.
I have noticed that the laptop drive I have from IBM does not have ANY disk cache. This seems to be a problem from time to time when the I/O gets a bit too heavy. Is there an easy way to deal with this or am I just stuck with the occasional reset messages? (I have not tried the new 2.2.0 series yet. Waiting for the final.)
