How to install Debian Etch GNU/Linux on Asus L7200 (2C) laptop

Posted by v at 12:22 PM | Comments (3)

An entry for myself, in case of, and for others having the same hardware.
(LT version below)

The stuff :

Computer: Asus L7200 2C laptop (1998)
Screen: 12,1'' TFT SVGA max resolution: 800x600
Processor: Intel Celeron 300MHz
RAM: 160MB (max)
Hard drive: 4GB
Touchpad: Alps (Synaptics)
Video: Silicon Motion Lynx SM910 Graphics Chipset, 4MB of memory
Ports/network/etc:
1 USB 1.0 port
2 pcmcia slots with the network cards (bought separately):
Linksys (Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)) wireless network card
Generic Cnet CNF401 (Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)) 100/10Mb/s network card
Cdrom, floppy drives, serial, printer, screen, PS2, infrared ports, audio connectors
Li-Ion batterry, one power cable :)

Debian GNU/Linux installation :

1. Get (download and burn) a Debian Etch CD (i386) (www.debian.org)

--------------------------------------------------
2. Start the computer from the CD. How to do it, see your BIOS manual.

----------------------------------------------------
3. At startup prompt type:

installgui noapic nolapic vga=788

-----------------------------------------------------
4. Answer all the questions. The install will run with no surprises, just the wireless wont work, for the network select the Realtek card.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. At the end of installation after reboot don't start normal kernel option. Go for "single user" (rescue) option, otherwise X will just stall and you'll have no other option, just reboot.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Type your Administrator password and edit the xorg.conf file by typing:

vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf

##############
vim usage guidlines:

i - lets you edit the file
Esc - quit the edit mode
:write - save the file
:q - quit vim
##############

make sure that "Device" section looks like:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Silicon Motion, Inc. SM910"
Driver "siliconmotion"
Option "NoMTRR"
Option "NoDDC
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

If you got spare time, you could configure the touchpad too (although this could be done later):

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "130"
Option "RightEdge" "840"
Option "TopEdge" "130"
Option "BottomEdge" "640"
Option "FingerLow" "7"
Option "FingerHigh" "8"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "110"
Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "75"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "20"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "20"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.60"
Option "MaxSpeed" "1.10"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.030"
Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "200"
Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "200"
Option "UpDownScrolling" "1"
Option "CircularScrolling" "1"
Option "CircScrollDelta" "0.1"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. After the you put order in xorg.conf your system will be almost functional, except the wireless network card. So now you can restart your computer by typing:

shutdown -r now

----------------------------------------------------------------------
8. To make the wireless card (Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)) work install the firmware by opening the Administrator Terminal (launch it somewhere in Programs) menu and typing:

apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter

when it asks to download the firwmare, type y (for yes :)

then type in the same terminal these commands (one after another):

mkdir -p /lib/hotplug/firmware

cp /lib/firmware/*.fw /lib/hotplug/firmware

modprobe bcm43xx

---------------------------------------------
9. Get your normal network card out and now choose your wireless network with the network-manager applet (next to the clock on the screen) and type you very very secret key, whatever you have. you got the thing working. If it's not working, get the normal network card out, restart the computer and repeat the part part of the guide (9.)

That's all. Have fun with your fully functional Debian laptop!

Postas sau pačiam, Jei kada dar prireiks greitai viską susitvarkyti ir kitiems, jei kam prireiks kada ir ras gūglėj.

Dėžė :

Kompiuteris: Asus L7200 2C laptop (1998)
Ekranas: 12,1'' TFT SVGA max raiška: 800x600
Procesorius: Intel Celeron 300MHz
Atmintis: 160MB RAM (max)
Kietas diskas: 4GB
Pelė: Alps (Synaptics) touchpad
Vaizdas: Silicon Motion Lynx SM910 Graphics Chipset, 4MB of memory
Kita:
1 USB 1.0 port
2 pcmcia slots with the network cards (pirktos atskitai):
Linksys (Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)) wireless network card
Generic Cnet CNF401 (Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)) 100/10Mb/s network card
Cdrom, floppy skaitytuvai, serial, printer, screen, PS2, infrared lizdai, audio lizdai
Li-Ion baterija, maitinimo laidas :)

Debian GNU/Linux instaliacija:

1. Gauk (atsisiųsk ir išsikepk) Debian Etch kompaktinį diską (i386) (www.debian.org)

--------------------------------------------------
2. Paleisk kompiuterį iš kompaktinio disko. Kaip tai padarytį, žr. kompiuterio BIOS instrukciją.

----------------------------------------------------
3. Kai pasikraus, surink komandą:

installgui noapic nolapic vga=788

-----------------------------------------------------
4. Atsakyk į visus klausimus. Instaliacija nestrigs, tik belaidis ryšys neveiks, pasirink laidinį (Realtek)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Instaliaijos pabaigoje po persikrovimo pasirink "single user" (gelbėjimo) variantą, nes kitaip X aplinka tiesiog nusmegs ir nieko kito negalėsi padaryt, tik perkraut vėl.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Surink administratoriaus slaptažodį ir pakeist xorg.conf bylą surinkdamas :

vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf

##############
vim instrukcija:

i - leidžia taisyti bylą
Escape - išeiti iš taisymo būsenos
:write - išsaugoti bylą
:q - išeiti iš vim
##############

"Device" sekcija turi atrodyti taip :

Section "Device"
Identifier "Silicon Motion, Inc. SM910"
Driver "siliconmotion"
Option "NoMTRR"
Option "NoDDC
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

Jei turi laiko, taip pat gali susitvarkyti pelę iš kart, bet tai galima padaryt ir vėliau:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "130"
Option "RightEdge" "840"
Option "TopEdge" "130"
Option "BottomEdge" "640"
Option "FingerLow" "7"
Option "FingerHigh" "8"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "110"
Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "75"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "20"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "20"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.60"
Option "MaxSpeed" "1.10"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.030"
Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "200"
Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "200"
Option "UpDownScrolling" "1"
Option "CircularScrolling" "1"
Option "CircScrollDelta" "0.1"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Kai xorg.conf byla bus sutvarkyta, sistema jau beveik veiks - išskyrus tik bevielį tinklą. Štai dabar galima perkraut kompiuterį surenkant:

shutdown -r now

----------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Kad veiktų belaidis ryšys (Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)), instaliuojame programinę įrangą atverdami Administratoriaus Terminale (paleisti kažkur Programų meniu) surinkdami:

apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter

kai paklaus atsisiųsti, rašom y (yes - taip angliškai ;)

Dabar surink terminale vieną po kitos šias komandas :

mkdir -p /lib/hotplug/firmware

cp /lib/firmware/*.fw /lib/hotplug/firmware

modprobe bcm43xx

---------------------------------------------
9. Dabar ištrauk laidinio tinklo kortą ir naudodamasis network-manager įnagiu (greta laikrodžio tavo ekrane) pasirink savo bevielį tinklą ir surink savo labai ypatingai slaptą tinklo slaptažodį. Turėtų veikt. Jei neveikia, vis tiek ištrauk laidinio tinklo kortą, perkrauk kompiuterį ir pakartok šią instrukcijos dalį (9.)

Viskas. Mėgaukis savo puikiai veikiančiu Debian nešiojamu kompiuteriu.
