(if supported). The only odd thing I ran into during my z505sx install was that if the install probed the 2nd ide controller (with, I think, the memory stick hung off of it), it would lock during the install. Disabling the 2nd controller during the kernel config part (off the first boot disk) got me past that. 3.2-stable will now get all the apm 1.2 stuff working. When I installed, the lastest changes hadn't been checked in and I had to get a more recent copy of PAO. Let us know if you get the sound or modem working. As far as I know, nobody has had any success with them, but I don't think anyone has tried terribly hard. (P.S.
