Is there a linux driver for Intel HM77 Chipset?
Hello all,
Recently I got a new Dell Inspiron 15R SE notebook. I first ran Ubuntu 12.04 live CD and when trying to install, it didn't recognized any devices (/dev/sda is the hard drive disk and /dev/sdb is the mSata card), which have been properly recognized by fdisk or cfdisk when I booted up from a Slackware (Hooray!!) image on a thumb drive. I intended to partition the hard disk to create a multiboot system, which has been halted mostly due to laziness on my part. :) Eventually I'll get it going, but I'd sooner clarify the chipset driver issue prior to doing that, which I couldn't find a download link in Intel's Mobile Intel® HM77 Express Chipset website. I'm pretty sure I'm not googling it right, but if some one can throw me some pointers on this, it would be grand! Thanks in advance! |
You certainly need *several* drivers to manage all functions of this chipset.
If you can boot from a Slackware installer on a thumb drive, then there shouldn't be any problem. Just wait a few days and install Slackware 14 on it :cool: If you want to check hardware support, boot your Slackware installer and type "lspci -k" at the prompt. |
