I'm still having issues with this. Suspend2Ram works out of the box with -f, but only once or twice before it either doesn't come up, or lots of stuff doesn't work when it does.

These are some notes I have about getting Debian GNU/linux working with my Averatec 2300 series notebook.
Contents
Installer
- Debian testing (Etch) netinst CD for amd64 (official snapshot). Can be found here, I think.
Hardware
Kernel
- Any (recent?) amd64-k8-smp flavour kernel should work great.
Graphics
- NVidia GeForce Go 6100
- The latest stable release from NVidia (8776) didn't work right, but the latest beta (9626) seems to work great
- See xorg.conf file
Sound
- Realtek ALC262 chip
- kernel driver: snd_hda_intel
Input devices
Trackpad
- Trackpad: synaptics driver
- See xorg.conf file
Wacom
- My Wacom Graphire finally worked after a lot of poking. There was an issue with different versions of xorg's drivers (including the wacom one), due to an issue in debian testing. I had to change to a new mirror to get the latest version of Etch and then update.
- See the Linx Wacom Project for more details
- See my xorg.conf file
Keyboard
- I made myself an international Latin + international Cyrillic keyboard. See my .xmodmap file.
Suspend / Hibernate
I'm still having issues with this. Suspend2Ram works out of the box with -f, but only once or twice before it either doesn't come up, or lots of stuff doesn't work when it does. Alsa has to be force-reloaded. I fixed my alsa init script and my /etc/powersave/sleep file to work together on this, but I still need to test it a little more rigourously.
