**8x DVD/CD Burner (DVD+/-RW)
**Webcam
*Debian GNU/Linux Etch (testing) Daily Build Debian Installer
*kernel 2.6.18-3 - Custom build - Kernel source from sid

==Detected by preinstaled windows (the last words of)==
Modem:Conexant HDA D110 MDC V.92 (winmodem)
DVD: Sony DVD+-RW DW-Q58A
NIC: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
SATA: Intel(R) 82801GMB/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4
Card Reader: Ricoh Memory Stick Y MMC
Webcam: QuickCam for Dell Network
PAD: Synaptics PS/2 Port Pointing device

=Base installation=
;Debian GNU/Linux Lenny (testing) Daily Build Debian Installer
Kernel built in module for lan interface does not work, I used an old Etch (testing) net installer

=Kernel=
==Compiling a custom kernel==
apt-get install linux-source-2.6.18 libncurses5-dev kernel-package
cd /usr/src
tar jxf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2
cd linux-source-2.6.18
make menuconfig
make-kpkg --initrd --revision gacq01 kernel_image
cd ..
dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.18_gacq01_i386.deb

Manually edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and reboot

=NVIDIA=
==Free drivers (nv)==
;Installed during xserver installation

==Proprietary drivers (nvidia)==
;Only for 3D acceleration and other advanced features, if not use free driver, you'll feel better.

===Installation===
apt-get install nvidia-kernel-2.6.18-4-686 nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-xconfig

==Configuration==
===Automatic===
nvidia-xconfig

===Manually===
Update your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Module"
[..]
#Load "dri"
[..]
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NoLogo"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "NvAGP" "1"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
[..]
Device "NVIDIA"
[..]
EndSection

=Wireless interface=
apt-get install firmware-ipw3945 ipw3945d ipw3945-modules-`uname -r`

;Optional
apt-get install network-manager

network-manager-gnome requires users to be in the group 'netdev' for it to work. If users aren't in the group 'netdev' then it won't automatically appear, and work, in the Notification Area.

If you're looking for a manual installation procedure see the [[ipw3945 driver manual installation for Debian Etch]]

=WebCam - Only work with v4l2=
==Manual==
Driver: http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/
<pre><nowiki>
apt-get install libpt-plugins-v4l2
svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/
cd linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
make
sudo make install
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video
</nowiki></pre>

Notes:
*Only [[v4l2]] is supported
*Add users to system group "video"

==Using packages (not working?)==
apt-get install linux-uvc-source libpt-plugins-v4l2
m-a prepare
m-a a-i linux-uvc
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video

==Testing Webcam==

===Using Mplayer===
Just run this and you should see the webcam image:
$ mplayer -v tv:// -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:outfmt=yuy2 -vc rawyuy2 -fps 15 -vo x11
===Using Luvcview===
Using luvcview we can take pics and record video.

apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
wget http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
tar -xvf luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
cd luvcview-20070512
make
sudo make install
luvcview -d /dev/video0 -f jpg -s 640x480

Now you can use the buttons (a bit ugly) or the following hotkeys while running the program:

*'''n''' -> BRIGHTNESS UP
*'''b''' -> BRIGHTNESS DOWN
*'''x''' -> CONTRAST UP
*'''w''' -> CONTRAST DOWN
*'''c''' -> SATURATION UP
*'''v''' -> SATURATION DOWN
*'''z''' -> GAIN UP
*'''a''' -> GAIN DOWN
*'''r''' -> SHARPNESS UP
*'''e''' -> SHARPNESS DOWN
*'''s''' -> SCREENSHOT
*'''p''' -> RECORD A VIDEO
*'''l''' -> RESET
*'''q''' -> QUIT

'''References'''
*http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/
*http://www.eldemonionegro.com/wordpress/archivos/category/informatica/

=Sound card=
If you have conflict with the webcam USB microphone you can use this configuration in /etc/modprobe.d/sound to set the correct device order asignation.
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1

=Frontal multimedia buttons=
Configure the frontal buttons using [http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ LineAK].
apt-get install lineak

Then you should add button configurations in '''/etc/lineakd.def'''. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

# Dell XPS M1210
[DXPS]
brandname = "Laptop/notebook"
odelname = "Dell XPS and Inspiron 9100"
[KEYS]
Play = 162
Previous = 144
Next = 153
Stop = 164
VolumeUp = 176
VolumeDown = 174
Mute = 160
[END KEYS]
[END DXPS]
# end Dell XPS/I9100 Laptop

Now do:

$ lineakd -c DXPS

Then you can attach a command to the different buttons. Make your changes in '''$HOME/.lineakd/lineakd.conf'''. This is just an example using Amarok (media player) and Aumix for volume control:

Mute = "aumix -v 0"
Next = "amarok -f"
Play = "amarok -t"
Previous = "amarok -r"
Stop = "amarok -s"
VolumeDown = "aumix -v -5"
VolumeUp = "aumix -v +5"

Finally, you have to run the lineak daemon:

$ lineakd&

Add this to any start script (like .xinitrc) to run it on start up.

=dvd/cdrom=
Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied)... retrying in 1 second.
cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot open '/dev/sg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
do:
chgrp cdrom /dev/sg0

=Modem (Not tested)=
==Driver==

These are NOT free, however - an uncrippled version will set you back USD 19.99, the free ones only support 14k4 :-(

dpkg -i hsfmodem_{version}_{arch}.deb
if necessary, run "hsfconfig" to complete the installation, enter license information, or to change your modem's configuration.

=NVIDIA=
==Free drivers (nv)==
;Installed during xserver installation

==Proprietary drivers (nvidia)==
;Only for 3D acceleration and other advanced features, if not use free driver, you'll feel better.

===Installation===
apt-get install nvidia-kernel-2.6.18-4-686 nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-xconfig

==Configuration==
===Automatic===

=Wireless interface=
apt-get install firmware-ipw3945 ipw3945d ipw3945-modules-`uname -r`

;Optional
apt-get install network-manager

network-manager-gnome requires users to be in the group 'netdev' for it to work. If users aren't in the group 'netdev' then it won't automatically appear, and work, in the Notification Area.

If you're looking for a manual installation procedure see the [[ipw3945 driver manual installation for Debian Etch]]

=WebCam - Only work with v4l2=
==Manual==
Driver: http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/
<pre><nowiki>
apt-get install libpt-plugins-v4l2
svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/
cd linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
make
sudo make install
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video
</nowiki></pre>

Notes:
*Only [[v4l2]] is supported
*Add users to system group "video"

==Using packages (not working?)==
apt-get install linux-uvc-source libpt-plugins-v4l2
m-a prepare
m-a a-i linux-uvc
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video

==Testing Webcam==

===Using Mplayer===
Just run this and you should see the webcam image:
$ mplayer -v tv:// -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:outfmt=yuy2 -vc rawyuy2 -fps 15 -vo x11
===Using Luvcview===
Using luvcview we can take pics and record video.

apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
wget http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
tar -xvf luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
cd luvcview-20070512
make
sudo make install
luvcview -d /dev/video0 -f jpg -s 640x480

Now you can use the buttons (a bit ugly) or the following hotkeys while running the program:

'''*n''' -> BRIGHTNESS UP
'''*b''' -> BRIGHTNESS DOWN
'''*x''' -> CONTRAST UP
'''*w''' -> CONTRAST DOWN
'''*c''' -> SATURATION UP
'''*v''' -> SATURATION DOWN
'''*z''' -> GAIN UP
'''*a''' -> GAIN DOWN
'''*r''' -> SHARPNESS UP
'''*e''' -> SHARPNESS DOWN
'''*s''' -> SCREENSHOT
'''*p''' -> RECORD A VIDEO
'''*l''' -> RESET
'''*q''' -> QUIT

=Sound card=
If you have conflict with the webcam USB microphone you can use this configuration in /etc/modprobe.d/sound to set the correct device order asignation.
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1

=Frontal multimedia buttons=
Configure the frontal buttons using [http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ LineAK].
apt-get install lineak

Then you should add button configurations in '''/etc/lineakd.def'''. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

# Dell XPS M1210
[DXPS]
brandname = "Laptop/notebook"
odelname = "Dell XPS and Inspiron 9100"
[KEYS]
Play = 162
Previous = 144
Next = 153
Stop = 164
VolumeUp = 176
VolumeDown = 174
Mute = 160
[END KEYS]
[END DXPS]
# end Dell XPS/I9100 Laptop

Now do:

$ lineakd -c DXPS

Then you can attach a command to the different buttons. Make your changes in '''$HOME/.lineakd/lineakd.conf'''. This is just an example using Amarok (media player) and Aumix for volume control:

Mute = "aumix -v 0"
Next = "amarok -f"
Play = "amarok -t"
Previous = "amarok -r"
Stop = "amarok -s"
VolumeDown = "aumix -v -5"
VolumeUp = "aumix -v +5"

Finally, you have to run the lineak daemon:

$ lineakd&

Add this to any start script (like .xinitrc) to run it on start up.

=dvd/cdrom=
Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied)... retrying in 1 second.
cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot open '/dev/sg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
do:
chgrp cdrom /dev/sg0

=Modem (Not tested)=

These are NOT free, however - an uncrippled version will set you back USD 19.99, the free ones only support 14k4 :-(

dpkg -i hsfmodem_{version}_{arch}.deb
if necessary, run "hsfconfig" to complete the installation, enter license information, or to change your modem's configuration.

=Sound card=
If you have conflict with the webcam USB microphone you can use this configuration in /etc/modprobe.d/sound to set the correct device order asignation.
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1

=Frontal multimedia buttons=
Configure the frontal buttons using [http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ LineAK].
apt-get install lineak

Then you should add button configurations in '''/etc/lineakd.def'''. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

# Dell XPS M1210
[DXPS]
brandname = "Laptop/notebook"
odelname = "Dell XPS and Inspiron 9100"
[KEYS]
Play = 162
Previous = 144
Next = 153
Stop = 164
VolumeUp = 176
VolumeDown = 174
Mute = 160
[END KEYS]
[END DXPS]
# end Dell XPS/I9100 Laptop

Now do:

$ lineakd -c DXPS

Then you can attach a command to the different buttons. Make your changes in '''$HOME/.lineakd/lineakd.conf'''. This is just an example using Amarok (media player) and Aumix for volume control:

Mute = "aumix -v 0"
Next = "amarok -f"
Play = "amarok -t"
Previous = "amarok -r"
Stop = "amarok -s"
VolumeDown = "aumix -v -5"
VolumeUp = "aumix -v +5"

Finally, you have to run the lineak daemon:

$ lineakd&

Add this to any start script (like .xinitrc) to run it on start up.

=dvd/cdrom=
Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied)... retrying in 1 second.
cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot open '/dev/sg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.

chgrp cdrom /dev/sg0

These are NOT free, however - an uncrippled version will set you back USD 19.99, the free ones only support 14k4 :-(

if necessary, run "hsfconfig" to complete the installation, enter license information, or to change your modem's configuration.

==Compiling a custom kernel==
apt-get install linux-source-2.6.18 libncurses5-dev kernel-package
cd /usr/src
tar jxf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2
cd linux-source-2.6.18
make menuconfig

apt-get install network-manager

network-manager-gnome requires users to be in the group 'netdev' for it to work. If users aren't in the group 'netdev' then it won't automatically appear, and work, in the Notification Area.

If you're looking for a manual installation procedure see the [[ipw3945 driver manual installation for Debian Etch]]

=WebCam - Only work with v4l2=
==Manual==

Notes:
*Only [[v4l2]] is supported
*Add users to system group "video"

'''Webcam test - Luvcview'''
Using luvcview we can take pics and record video.
