Hello Everyone,

I installed Fedora Core 7 on my acer aspire 4730z.(I got a BSOD when i tried to install windows).I wish to install the audio drivers for the laptop in fedora core.I also wish to know if i can use the reliance wireless netconnection with fedora core(off topic??).

So basically i need answers regarding:-

╦Installing Windows on the laptop and the BSOD

╦Installing Audio Driver

╦Reliance Wireless connection in FC7

-Thank You

EDIT-The FC7 is just showing the wallpaper after login....no icons or anything....i can just move the mouse about.Please help.

Click to expand...

Like Mandriva 2009.0 or upcoming Ubuntu 8.10.. Newer distro should work. By the way whats the specs ?
 
installed the ubuntu 8.04....its working fine...i need to be able to access internet wirelessly(reliance,airtel,tata indiacom....)....any idea which might work on linux?
 
^^You mean the Netconnet type USB modem or DSL ? B/w why didn't you try Mandriva 2009.0 its newer and better release than Ubuntu 8.04 also you can try it without installing !
 
update: wow, intrepid installed and booted, EVERYTHING appears to be working out of the box by default... LAN, wifi, video, sound, bluetooth (didnt check card reader or dvd writing :D )

i am very impressed with this acer laptop model

edit: webcam is giving a green tint in the video, but lets see after updates
