linux-howto

http://www.linuxforums.org – maybe I have more luck in this thread, running ubuntu./dual boot with XP. At the moment Ubuntu will not even boot (!). HP DV1000 series laptop. Tried this: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter, but driver can not be found, try searching the internet, most likely is driver not available or not properly tested yet. Someone who can help me out? Very close uninstalling the whole sh*t and going back to XP (it's getting too complicated, pity). lspci -knn: 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller [8086:2590] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: agpgart-intel Kernel modules: intel-agp 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller [8086:2592] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: i915 Kernel modules: i915 00:02.1 Display controller [0380]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller [8086:2792] (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 [8086:2658] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd 00:1d.1 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 [8086:2659] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd 00:1d.2 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 [8086:265a] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd 00:1d.3 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 [8086:265b] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd 00:1d.7 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller [8086:265c] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: ehci_hcd 00:1e.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge [8086:2448] (rev d3) 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller [0401]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller [8086:266e] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: Intel ICH Kernel modules: snd-intel8x0 00:1e.3 Modem [0703]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Modem Controller [8086:266d] (rev 03) Kernel modules: snd-intel8x0m 00:1f.0 ISA bridge [0601]: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) LPC Interface Bridge [8086:2641] (rev 03) Kernel modules: iTCO_wdt, intel-rng 00:1f.1 IDE interface [0101]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller [8086:266f] (rev 03) Kernel driver in use: ata_piix 00:1f.3 SMBus [0c05]: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Controller [8086:266a] (rev 03) Kernel modules: i2c-i801 06:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
