I am running Mandrake 6.1 and through the install itself it detected and =
runs correctly on my 770Z. This is for graphics only. I have not =
attempted to touch sound or network yet. Having problems with detecting =
the Docking station III and it's cards. Haven't tried networking with =
just the PCMCIA Etherlink yet either.
The Red Hat 6.1 install I used did not correctly find my 770Z graphics. =
Had to use Bill's patches. =20
