My Aspire 1682WLMi with Mandrake 10.1 Community Edn.
I bought new ACER Aspire 1682WLMi recently. I've tried various distros and having problem with ATI mobility Radeon 9700 and winmodem.
I've spent a lot of late night trying everything possible with FC2. I managed to follow suggestion - force ati radeon 9700 driver from Ati.com
to manageble success. 2D with 1280x800 resolution is very good, but not 3D.
Today, I've managed to get a copy of Linux Format December, with Mandrake 10.1 Community edition DVD. Woah, if only i get it sooner, at last, ati with 3D capable in my linux notebook. Sadly, I'm still trying to solve modem problem.
Oh, I install mandrake 10.1 by selecting default, and dual-boot with windowsXP (for working purpose). Make sure ACPI is off
