I recently installed redhat 9 on my laptop- HP/ZE1115 with duron processor, every thing with via chipsets, using SMC 802.11b pcmcia card. Some how the bios doesn't boot from hardrive (must be bad sectors), installed redhat and boot from grub floppy. Compiled kernel with 2.4.25. The wiless card uses tainted driver ADM8211. First-time compiled with apm, every thing is OK, but the laptop gets so hot without the support of apm. Recompiled with acpi, now the laptop cools down, but the network get very slow. Still pings my desktop with 1~2 ms, but ssh to it waits for ever. Same thing for internet browsing. Every thing is compiled into kernel, except the wireless driver 8211.o. The computer runs other program seems OK. Let me know if I should post more infomation and thanks for attention. -Hui
