I have installed Redhat 8, 9, fc2, & fc3 with few problems. Most annoying problem has been with the kernel and USB. With kernel 2.6.9 the MP3 player was not recognised as a storage device. Worked fine with 2.6.7 and with current 2.6.10-rc2. Main problems with Redhat 8 and 9 have been USB and hotplug. Need to use newest hotplug.
Current setup:
Fedora Core 3
Kernel 2.6.10-rc2
Kde 3.2.2
Xorg 6.8 running about 1700 with glxgears
USB 2.0 works
MP3 player / SD Card Reader works
Firewire works
TV Tuner / Capture Card works
Sony Card Reader don't know, I don't own a memory stick.
Pcmcia works
Wireless pcmcia linksys card works
CDRW/DVD-Rom & CDRW/DVDRW both installed works
Mapped Keyboard and Front volume keys.
Run time is about 2 hours.
