[Arm-netbook] debian on CT-PC89e - obsevations as i see them ...

[Adam Gill]

Recently installed Debian Lenny with XFCE desktop

Observations so far:


1. when trying to restart: only shutdown is available - others are 
greyed out
2. when press shut down, it actually restarts .......... but if i select 
shutdown on "actions" i can choose shut down and it actially shuts down
3. i left the netbook on all nite - and the screen had frozen in the 
morning ... but screen not fried
4. when hit reset button ..... and start up ......... i see what looks 
like some packages installing ...
5. When press web browser icon - the the terminal opens
6. xfmedia - tries to load - can see the loading icon - but gives up 
after about 20 secs
7. On boot up: if i take out sd card .... i get: waiting for root device 
/dev/mmcblk0p2 ...
if i put in sd card again boot and text scroll down continues
8. Plug in ntfs usb hard drive - not recognized or no icon to be seen
9. not able to access my network
10 plug in usb drive - two cycles of flashes and then stops ...... not 
sure if recognized or not - cannot see icon
11.
12. if i move the micro switch in the opposite direction on so-dimm - 
system does not boot - meaning we are booting from sd card
13. screen freezes after about 30 mins -1 hour if not used ........get 4 
vertical coloured bars .... reset and power on .... can boot
... when booting again .........  and some copying between SD card and 
nand flash and attempts loading i think .... and then shuts down - power 
on again - boots normally
14. On midfun OS - if press power button 5 seconds - system will power 
off - on Lenny - cannot do this ...
