Gerardo, I have a 1700 that sounds like what you are buying. I like it. I can play dvd's with mplayer and ogle, sound works fine the internal nic works as a dc. I have had no problems with the single pci slot. Both the floppy and the dvd/cd-rw work. I burn a cd a week or so. I have never tried the hot swap, I only use the floppy on occasion. X runs at 1024x768x16 and probably more but that is what I use. If you have specific problems, let me know. ed P.S. I'm running current, BTW. Quoting "Gerardo Amaya G." <jogegabsd@yahoo.com>: | Hello all, I'm soon going to have an Armada Presario | Laptop, I really don't remember the model but I think | it is not relevant. | I'm getting the one that has CD_R/CD_RW, DVD , and | floppy in a kind of hot swap port. | | I don't care if the hot swap feature is supported or | not in BSD, I just wonder how does freeBSD configure | the device?? | I mean can I boot one time with the dvd, other time | with the CD-RW, stuff like that | | I will apreciate if someone with a presario with those | features tell me how is doing, and the experience with | the hot swap thing. | | Thanx | | Gerardo Amaya | | __________________________________________________ | Do You Yahoo!? | Yahoo!
