Hello James, I have the same notebook as you with intel 945G and I couldn’t start the gentoo live DVD on it.

Did you a link or another forum?

Thank you

Roberto

Sorry, I never got around to suspend to disk. If you check the gentoo forums, the thread about the 9400 probably has information that can help you.

Hi, like your 9400 howto, I have a e1705, with suse 10.1 on it. All works, but suspend to disk flakes out after 2-3 times, and suspend to ram doesn’t work (it does suspend, just doesn’t recover). Any ideas?
Thanks,
Harris

hi
thanks a lot for your dell 9400 howto.
Since i don’t use gentoo(i use debian), i even used your kernel config. I had some trouble with the harddisk(sata sdax), now it’s fixed.

cheers
