Michael,

I have a Satellite Pro 440CDX and am running Linux RedHat 4.2 with Xfree86.
I have no problems (of which I am aware!). Read the information about this 
computer on the Linux Laptop homepage (I think you already got the address.)
and believe what it says, especially about Xfree86. You MUST use thelatest
version of xfree86 which specifically recognizes the CT65554 chip in the
SETUP script. Once you run the Xconfig86 script you shoul be all set. I
have NOT yet setup a kernal with the souncard, but that is also addressed
in the Linux Laptop page.

Good luck,

Tom Zeltwnager, tomz@ename.co
