Configuration
Sound Configuration
- To obtain sound input support (microphones), the kernel must be built with the VIA Intel HD audio codec.
USB Configuration
- You need to compile the support for improved root translators sheduling on Linux. Else some USB devices such as mice will NOT work!
Wifi Configuration
- The Atheros PCI card is supported by madwifi-ng driver or ath5k. ath5k is a much better option as it is newer, and present in the main kernel tree.
