Hello,
My laptop multimedia-keys(HP
smart keys) works fine in GNOME desktop but doesn’t work with KDE.
Also, Internet is not
getting configured. When I plugin the LAN wire, it says connected and the ip
address displayed is different to what I see in windows. I have a external
modem connected to broadband service provider.
Please provide suggestion to
configure the above.
Thanks,
Gyan

Rpmfusion is easy to set up: http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration/
The nvidia-driver is propietary but you are allowed to use it as you own the
card, so you sould not care about licensing issues about it. Only philosofical
issues for being using a propietary binary thing into your free kernel.
The audio card can be a problem. You first have to identify the chipset and
know if alsa supports it, you can start in alsa's web site instructions for new
alsa users: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
Good luck!

Hey, but am more worried about
the Audio card. I tried with F10 KDE live CD but no sound was audible! Also how
do I get rpm-fusion usage license?
Is their any alternate
method to get sound working on my laptop?

Nvidia graphics will be supported if you use rpm fusion non-free
repository, the processor is supported, the touchpad too, the network card too,
but the tv tunner the audo codec and the HP MeadiaSmart thing should be check
before. The best thing is trying first with a live cd and check that everything
works out of the box. With a live cd you should not have proper video
aceleration as it will use the default nv driver for your nvidia card until you
set up rpmfusion and install nvidia propietary kernel, so don't worry about the
video performance.
