Lucent AMR modem, windows only.

Despite messages about USB storage at boot time, works perfectly.
I compiled USB-storage modules into the kernel along with RTL8139.

Wireless also works perfectly even with my Apple Base Station (unlike in 
Windows, which says there is no such card, and Puppy Linux, which cannot 
deal with this setup even with nameserver set manually - complains about 
network mask).

Nvidia video works with framebuffer video including fbjpeg (which does not 
work with neomagic or chips laptops up to 266MHz). Xvesa also works.

Has a Smartmedia card reader which I have not yet tested with the card 
from my 1999 Olympus Camedia.

Sound is probably Crystal CS4299-A using cs4281.o (which is found at the 
BL3.5 site, but the 2.2.26 kernels don't work on this laptop - read-only 
file system or won't mount partitions).

People have had assorted other problems in linux with this series of 
laptops (3000-100, 3000-514...).

Would precompiled Slackware 8.1 modules work with my kernels, which I
compiled with gcc 2.95.3?
