Things that still don't work though are the volume knob on the side (I can't believe that knob isn't just a variable resistor on the output amplifier - seems really bizarre for it to be software controlled...). The internal speaker system seems not to work either - I don't know why this is. For tips on using the Dual head, I've written some tidier docs on my blog than the ones on the net http://www.karnaugh.za.net/show?id=296 Full xorg.conf included if you're a lazy copy-paster ;) Just to update this – the M1437G works pretty much out the box with Ubuntu 7.04.

I have a All in One printer (prining, copying a nd scanning) I already done with the printing, I have encounter problem on Scanning Driver. Anyway, the printer model is EPSON CX5900. I already download and install the iscan driver (Epson Driver) and the problem was the "imlibgdk". Any idea to resolve my concern. Thanks. Henry Hi Team,

Nach zwei Tagen herumärgern, hab ichs nun geschafft nach oben genannten Vorgehensweisen das System zu installieren und siehe da sogar eine graphische Oberfläche zeigt sich mir. Noch viel Erfolg bei weiteren Hilfestellungen. LG Cattie Hi Martin,

Noch viel Erfolg bei weiteren Hilfestellungen.

I'm still prospecting for drivers but up to now I found no one that succeeded to read a SD card, only someone waiting for a O2 Micro driver : http://www.amilo-forum.de/topic,5775,-SD-Card-Reader-Amilo-Pro-2040-unter-SuSE-10-0-laeuft-nicht.html I also found a driver here : http://www.musclecard.com/sourcedrivers.html but seems that it's only for SC, not SD :/ Because I have neither one of these :p

Seems most of the problems are caused due to missing libs and/or files because of the ubuntu default installation.. here you go: http://system76.com/knowledge/index.php/ALSA_1.0.10_Setup_on_Ubuntu_Breezy Now I still can't playback mp3s because I can't install the gstreamer0.8-mad package due to dependencies and since I don't have permanent internet I can't configure and make work the repositories.. Anyways, it's ok, thank for the help.. PS. I am still trying to configure the motorola SM56 modem in kubuntu but.. I converted the package on the web site of motorola to deb and installed it but still no good.. anyways, in case anyone encountered this thing too..
