Awesome! I hope you have more luck running it...

I have never tried it because it will be a SLOW system...

by the way: when creating the dkms.conf file, you have to change the qoutations: "" tot ''.

Like this example:
PACKAGE_NAME=r8168
PACKAGE_VERSION=8.019.00
MAKE[0]='make'
BUILT_MODULE_NAME[0]=r8168
BUILT_MODULE_LOCATION[0]='src/'
DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[0]='/kernel/updates/dkms'
AUTOINSTALL='YES'

I followed this how to for fixing the ethernet driver: no more drop outs or a freeze of fit-pc2. Also when I rebooted, sometimes there was a loss of the eth0 device; I do not get this anymore!

Cheers, Marco

well, congratulations! And happy Debian, because I do not know anything about mplayer (or movies)

The DRM for the poulsbo driver has to be initialized. This happens at the startup of your computer.
My Debian squeeze is completely up-to-date.

My kernel s optimized for the atom processor, and I turned off a lot of features wich I did not need. You can work perfectly with the stock kernel.

2.6.32-fit-pc2
I buil;d a custom kernel, but it is based on the stock kernel 2.6.32, as you can see.

Did you do a reboot afther the installation?

I did a download for Fedora... It's just a bundel of drivers for a couple of Linux versions.

...and did you tried to compile your own driver from Realtek? I am on Debian now... and i see what you mean.
Or even better: did you find a solution?

Yes I have you can safely apply it. The result is an more responsive system. But it is minimal...
