So, I don't wave mouse, sound and network in order to install the drivers... Is there's somthing I can do about it?

How far does install get ?

The install goes fine and install Fedora so well, but I don't have a proper screen and video configuration (I have 1280x768), don't have a mouse and network

Any error messages ?

Right now I'm working on Ubuntu system so I can send you the log, but the network card gives me this message when I try to "ifup eth0" (in a DCHP system I sow this message (more or less) SIOCSIFLAGS error.

Can you post any errors / last few lines seen on ctrl-alt-f2, f3, f4 ?

No really, I'm now on Ubuntu and whe I was trying to configure Fedora I don't have any way to copy the logs.

Are the disks ide, scsi, sata or usb ?

The disk are IDE.

How much ram do you have ?

1 Giga.

CPU maker and speed ?

Intel centrino, I dn't know the speed :?

Thanks, DaveT.

I'm sorry but I can't give you more information. I just asking if someone with my same model of laptop has been able to use properly (with network, mouse, USB and video)

I have rawhide running on my dv1000. I installed it sometime around the FC5T1 period and had similar breakage to the symptoms you describe (no mouse or wired networking). It helped me a lot to add "acpi=noirq" to the kernel boot line; most problems went away.

I will try next weekend and I try to give more feedback about the "acpi=noirq". I hope this time everything goes well.

BTW I've doublechecked with rawhide, and specifically the wired ethernet doesn't work on that laptop unless you hack the kernel command line.

I've now filed this as bug 179631

Hope that helps Dave

I have fedora core 5 test 2 running beautifully on my dv1000. Of course, this isn't without some painful configs at the beginning (thanks to all the peeps on the board who helped). As far as the resolution is concerned: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HP_Pavilion_dv1067 --while this is for gentoo, the instructions to set up your resolution works!

Wireless: this was definitely a pain in the butt. But there are step by step instructions within the archives--they work absolutely perfectly (so surprisingly easy for linux that I have a tear in my eye for how far linux has gone since 10 years ago). But don't expect the light to turn on.

Mouse: dunno. My worked as soon as I installed it. You sure the touchpad was enabled when you installed? I have no other clue of why it wouldn't work.

USB: works fine from install

wired network: works fine from install.

sd/mmc card reader: nothing yet made for this. I found a site with ppl working on it, but I don't expect to get this to work anytime soon--and frankly don't much care. Just use a fat partition (if trying to have common media for a possible windoze install on the laptop) or use a USB memory card when you get your USB up.

Anyway, I'm just another guy who has the hp dv1000 and I wanted to verify that YES--fc5t2 works fine on the computer. Try a reinstall or something and post back what happened.
