Installing Fedora Core 5 on a Compaq nc6120
===========================================

Not working:
  - LCD screen only at 800x600 instead of 1200x1024
  - Wireless network interface

  rpm --import http://freshrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY-freshrpms
  rpm -ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/5/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm

  
  rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
  rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm
  
  rpm --import http://dries.studentenweb.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY.dries.txt

Then look at http://dries.studentenweb.org/rpm/clientconfig.html to enable
the Dries repository.


From livna:
  
  yum install ipw2200-firmware

Now the device works but comes up with weird devices names such as
dev10405 of dev5410 or similar. To fix this, install the latest version
of initscripts which contains fixes for this:

  sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install initscripts

For the LCD, get 915 Resolution http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/ 

  wget http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/915resolution-0.5.2.tar.gz

Untar, make and make install it. Then put the following 
in /etc/init.d/915resolution

  #!/bin/sh
  #
  # chkconfig: 2345 1 99
  # description: This sets the LCD screen resolution for Intel 915
  [ "$1" = "start" ] && /usr/sbin/915resolution 3c 1400 1050 32

Then execute as root:

  chmod +x /etc/init.d/915resolution
  /sbin/chkconfig --add 915resolution

Make sure your /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains something similar to:

  Section "Monitor"
  	...
    HorizSync    28-72
  	VertRefresh  59.0 - 75.0
  	...
  EndSection
  
  Section "Device"
    ...
  	Option      "ForceBIOS" "1920x1440=1400x1050"
  EndSection
  
  Section "Screen"
    ...
  	DefaultDepth     24
  	SubSection "Display"
  		Viewport   0 0
  		Depth     24
  		Modes           "1600x1200" "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1024x768"
  	EndSubSection
    ...
  EndSection

That should about do it for now.
