Hi! I would like to share my experience installing kalyway on this laptop (I've have not found any thread on this forum) and maybe solve some problems.
Laptop:
Intel Core2Duo T8100 2.1Ghz
4Gb DDR2 ram
Nvidia 8400GS
Ethernet:Realtek RTL8168C/8111C
Wifi: Intel 3945
Realtek ALC268 Sound Controller
I've installed Kalyway 10.5.2 with vanilla kernel chosing Nvinject256 as video driver, after run Dell post installer (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=97966) and it works fine (except if you change trackpad scrolling, keyboard and trakpad will not work)
But it works fine, i've got this:
Wireless will not work, there's no driver for 3945, just now i foud this (http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/f180/63309.htm) but i've not tried yet
Ethernet works fine.
Sound works using ALC268installer2 and after ALC268.mpkg but Shutdown and sleep doesn't work, restart makes shutdown. It sounds but first two, three seconds the sounds crash and after it sound good, sometimes making clicks when i open an application. I have not tested mic yet. I've tried with a Behringer UCA200 (usb-rca converter) and it doesn't work at all, sounds half second and stop 3.
Nvidia it seems to work good but not DVI output, i've tried NVCAP (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=124926) edit and the system never start again. (black screen)
USB works fine.
Firewire it seems to work and (sometimes) recognaizes a sony dv camera but i couldn't capture any video. Not tested with other device.
Memory: it recognizes DDR2 SDRAM 800Mhz and mine is 667MHz Should be this a problem?
Webcam works fine
I don't try to upgrade to 10.5.4 cause i read it brokes keyboard and mouse and i don't have usb keyboard and i've installed kalyway at least 10 times so it's enought if it works.
Any idea to improve sound (external card will work?), make firewire full working and fix DVI output?
Thanks to all people that make 0sx86 posible.
