I have (had ?) the same, but mine -still alive- is now "retiring" because of a new acquisition. I've to say that ACER hardware is (was ?) not so good ; i bought my laptop in september 2003 : - The battery was dead after one year and a half of service - The power plug inside the laptop was unsoldered 2 years after the acquisition. After a re-soldering, the mousepad stopped to work. - The hard disk died in january 2006. - the power plug desoldered again one year later. Now i'm going to give it to a cousin, so that she could watch dvds. End of its story, RIP to your laptop anyway, and obviously, long life to the debian project ;-) Hi,
