Dell SX260 - Virtual video memory seems to be a problem. There's a lot of fixes for similar problems, but none seem to work for this box (in my experience).

Sony Vaio PCG-954A
Pentium III 695.6 MHz
254 M Ram
Chipset: Intel i815

Ubuntu 6 and 7 will not install at all.
forced installations result in a Snowcrash.
Will not boot beyond "loading standard PCI Resources"
Install program will not load at all in normal mode.
*Forced Installation means: typing, "quiet splash noapi=off irqpoll" in the 'Alternate' CD menu Command line.(which results in a snowcrash on initial boot)
Identical problems with Zenwalk.
And very similar with openSUSE.

Live CD will not install at all.
Editing the boot kernel with the above command line does not work.
Adjusting the Bios settings does not work.

Can I have your help?

Also, the Xsane Scanner support does not include the Nikon Coolscan V ED (aka 50 ED).

That's not true. Mine worked with no configuration. However, it won't work with the IR light for detecting dust. It just spits errors out

Epson 4180 scanner doesn't work though.

This isn't the correct place for help i believe. It's a list. Make a new post

EVGA GeForce 8800 640MB GFX card seems to be incompatible. Installed at first, but i tried to install the nVidia drivers (i think) and now i get "Failed to start X server"

Card reader on my HP nx6120 laptop doesn't seem to work. It somehow tries to read because it is lighting up but nothing ever shows up.

Hardware: asus notebook M2000N (anno 2004), centrino 'core solo' 1.3 ghz 500mb ram 40 gb hd. (bios: v0208 date: 03/08/04)

Tried the following CDs:

xubuntu 7.04 desktop, xubuntu 7.04 alternate:
The boot screen shows as expected. After starting the install (both standard install and safe graphics mode) it appears to initiate the install process (some green text and some dots at top edge of the screen) then screens turns black with a blinking dash in top left corner and nothing happens.

ubnutu 7.04 desktop:
The boot screen shows as expected. After starting the install (both standard install and safe graphics mode) it appears to initiate the install process (as above) then (with the menu still visible) it stops reporting in green text at top of screen "invalid or corrupt kernel image". When selecting one of the menus it reports "Could not find kernel image".

ubuntu 7.04 alternate
The boot screen shows as expected. After starting the installation the screen blinks a few times and it reboots (returning to the boot screen).

Installed Xubuntu 6.10 without a hitch, then upgraded to xubuntu 7.04 with kernel 2.6.20-16, which resulted in the laptop constantly rebooting (without any user interaction).

So the conclusion is that this laptop does not work with feisty!
