I was well into installing fc2 on one of my 770s (x) when I had to shutdown.
FWIW fc3 seems to have problems with some sound apps
I had been adding and updating with apt-get for over three hours with no 
problems.
After restarting the wlan pcmcia card is not recognized.
In fact, I've tried three different wless cards and none are recognized.
Cardctl "ident" says " open_sock(): No such device"
There are no "beeps" when inserting and extracting a card.
Also no lights on the card.

//// different subject that may/may not be relative

The adding and updating was to install sound related items.
Sound and Midi both appear to be working on this box!  !!! finally !!!
Many, many thanks for help from this list and especially Wes Schreiner!

Sorry about the bandwidth on the following but this will probably be
helpful to those fighting sound problems on 770 class machines
