I may as well, nothing to lose.
I have some driver difficulties running Ubuntu 8.04. I haven't yet tried 8.10, and don't know if I should or not. Basically, I'm running an hp tx1420us tablet pc with all factory hardware. The following parts seem to be unsupported right now:
Broadcom wireless card 4322 a/b/g/draft-n (the biggest priority)
Passive touch screen (I don't have a lot of information about it, which is part of why it doesn't work)
Headphone jacks (there are two of them, only laptop speakers ever produce sound)
Feedback LED on mute button (blue when muted, red when not, not very important)
That's it, I think. Big things though, except for the last one (tried to be complete, heh). I've tried installing the wireless driver with ndiswrapper, but that didn't work at all. Ubuntu seems to recognize the card, but can never find any networks. Come to think of it, sometimes I get exactly the same behavior in Windows, but only after a while and completely at random.
I've tried making the touch screen work; I forget what the drivers I was using were called. On initial installation, it recognized a tap on the screen as a left click, but did not alter cursor position; after attempts at installation, even that didn't work.
If you get all this to work, could you help me with an OSX86 installation? LOL
