This is an FS Amilo 3438G laptop, and I use it for work and leisure as well. I'm kind of a freelance developer (Java, Rational etc.), and currently learning Linux. I chose Debian, because I'd like to learn a lot. So far, I did with all these install problems, kernel compiles and other things I came across during solving this problem. I dont really need another desktop system. :) Thanks for help, and I'll get back to the list as soon I get further results.
