Damn, doesn't work :-(

I also changed the ident string of course. Built a new kernel, initrd, booted all that stuff, no change. The netbook's screen turns black and that's it. I connected an external TFT via VGA, this works just fine. And boots blazingly fast!

Info from 'dmidecode -d /dev/mem' is identical to hwinfo stuff above btw.

What am I missing?

linux-image-2.6.32-16-generic from ppa.launchpad.net/apw/red is version 2.6.32-16.23~drm33v5 btw, said to contain the latest intel drm.

Malata (http://malata.com/en/products.aspx) is the original manufacturer btw, I found their product name to be PC-81005N about one year ago. The product page has vanished in between. Just in case anybody wants to know ;-)
