Notes

  • the (not default) mention means that it can work by configuring the system.

  • wireless chip: the broadcom firmware is to be extracted from the file BCMWL5.SYS (OEM) with the bcm43xx-fwcutter utility available in the bcm43xx-fwcutter package from the universe repository.

  • internal modem: the sl-modem-daemon package from the multiverse repository is needed for the internal modem (using standard ALSA low level drivers). The modem works though the mini-speaker does not chirp (even with an "ATML2" hayes command).

  • You will need at least 320MB RAM for Gutsy, otherwise it won't install nor run. Gutsy tested with HP nx9105 rev. DU428EA#AKR, upgraded by 1GB Kingstom RAM module.
