Tested with Fedora 8, Ubuntu 7.1 and works great. Brigh ajustable, suspend/resume, hibernate, etc... Memory stick slot does NOT work and ms led shines all the time. Wifi works great too. In fedora 8, before install, pass this parameter to the kernel, if not, the installation freezes over: acpi=off, idedma=off , apc=off When is intalled, modify /boot/grub/grub.conf and delete this parameters and test if all works.

Plugged in and Fedora Core 5 recognised it and auto-mounted it. Filesystem was vfat on receipt, so great for Windows /Linux transfers Only "problem" was the free space was given as 466GB, not 500GB. Maybe a re-format would fix it?

Using this in Fedora11. But you need the latest DVB drivers from v4l and the appropriate firmware. The firmware can be found here: http://www.otit.fi/~crope/v4l-dvb/af9015/af9015_firmware_cutter/firmware_files/4.95.0/dvb-usb-af9015.fw

The EZ18 works fine in Fedora Core 3 and 4. Audio and network will be automatically detected and require no interaction. The nForce GPU is supported, but requires an external nVidia driver for 3D acceleration. The default (included) driver is 2D only. The Unofficial Fedora FAQ has published installation instruction for the nVidia driver: http://www.fedorafaq.org/#nvidia A final note: This 3D driver seems to work only with the 32MB or 64MB shared graphics video setting in BIOS setup. Changing this setting to 128MB will cause the driver to crash immediately.

Netodragon works under Fedora Core 2 & kernel 2.6.5 compiled from me (AMD K6-II 400MHz, Soyo 5EH5). Download driver from http://www.netodragon.com (actually 2.9.10). This modem/driver consumes 40-50% of CPU.

On HP photo paper, the printer leaves evenly spaced lines on the image that are perpendicular to the direction of paper feed. One of the cures for this given on the HP website is to "calibrate the line feed". However, the Linux compatibility page on the HP website for this printer says that this function is not supported under Linux. Another unsupported function is to print a diagnostic page. (It will print a "test page" and a printhead calibration page, which are different pages then the diagnostic page.) I was able to install in the printer in Fedora Core 11 without any problems. This wide format printer will print in a wide format from Gimp, if the paper and printer settings are done correctly. You must use the page setup to define a custom paper size. However, it will not do it's advertised "13 x 19 borderless printing" with any setting that I have found. (I have not tried allowing one setting of the image to be larger than the paper size yet.) It can be made to print a nearly 13 x 19 inch image with small borders.

This system was released in August of 2006 (I think), and uses the new core 2 Duo, and I believe a new Intel chipset. Not surprisingly, there are some problems using it with versions of Linux released before that time. Ubuntu 6.06 will load on the system, and most functions did appear to work. However, the onboard ethernet controller (an intel gbit interface) is not detected. I was able to get the system working with an older PCI ethernet card. I also tried test release Ubuntu 6.10 Knot 3. This correctly found the onboard ethernet card, so I assume the official 6.10 release will be fine when it comes out. Sound and USB worked fine. The DVD drive seems to work, but I had a lot of trouble getting the system to boot from the drive. I usually had to hit F12 to go to the boot menu, then tell it to boot from the DVD, which would always fail at least once. If I tried it multiple times, it would eventually work. This may be a problem with my system, I find it hard to believe this applies to all systems.

This product is suposed to be a DVB tuner. It is almost a good one under Microsoft OS, if you find a driver that works, which was difficult. Some of them are suposed to work on linux, because the hardware is generic and compatible (LiteOn) and has a driver included with recent kernel sources. However, mine refuse to work, because it is made such a way that udev cannot get enough information from sysfs to do it's stuff. Never succeeded in uploading the firmware anyway.

Bult-in Network card on Asus P5B motherboard. Downloaded and installed the r1000 v1.05 driver from the vendor, but the card is not working properly at neither speed 10 or 100 half or full duplex. I have not had the opportunity to test it at speed 1000. The ping times on the local network varies from 0.1 ms to many seconds with a high average. Many packages are lost, so the card is useless in practice.
