Hi!

I am installing gentoo on an acer travelmate 3010. Is anyone doing the same? I look for information, especially on wifi/card reader/sound and webcam...

Thx.

Have you looked at the Gentoo Wiki? Its full of information about the subjects you listed.

Was doing the same until the installation program refused to start installing Gentoo...
I switched to Ubuntu Dapper and it works great. The wifi shouldn't be any problem; there are drivers at Intel's website. The other devices seem to have no drivers available yet, so you'll just have to wait...
Go to http://ingo.exphysik.uni-leipzig.de/...inux/index.htm for more useful info; I found mine there.

I have Acer TM4202WLMI and I installed Gentoo on it. I got almost everything working. Cardreader is still open issue but since I don't have anything to put there, it's no biggie. Other thing not tested is the wireless connection as I don't have anywhere to test that. Otherwise it was pretty painless installation, most timeconsuming was configuring power management as I hadn't done it before. I had wrong configs in kernel so cpufreqd stated that it couldn't work with my Yonah processor. After rechecking kernel it became alive and started to work as it should.

Did you manage to get sound working on TM3012wtmi?
Best regards.
