Well I just got my Gateway m675x and have installed SuSE 9.0 on it.
Things that work:
1)Have native resolution working with hardware acceleration using the radeon drivers which can be downloaded from the suse website. Just followed the instructions provided by suse. Do not use the rpm's from ATI, they don't seem to work well with suse.
2)Memory card reader seems to work if I have the memory card in when I boot. Putting the card in after boot does not work. This seems normal since my desktop computer exhibits the same behavior with a PQI Travel Flash SD reader.
3)Haven't tried DVD burning yet, but the burner is recognized and K3b seems to have the option to burn a dvd. Dvd playing works great after installing the appropriate decryption software.
4)synaptics touchpad works pretty good. The virtual scroll wheel is working fine but I cannot get the actual scroll wheel to work. Anyone know how to get this to work? The touchpad is also too sensitive. Barely brushing it moves the cursor. Anyone know how to adjust this in XF86Config?
4)Usb works, parallel port works.
What doesn't work:
1)The sound card does not work. It is autodected as a "82801EB AC'97 Audio Controller". Not sure if this is correct but I get no sound from the built in speaker and no sound from external speakers. I have checked to make sure everything is unmuted in kamix.
2)ACPI causes the computer to shutdown immdiately after boot. Have to boot with "acpi=off". Of course this means to suspend and closing the lid does nothing. Would appreciate any help with this.
