Linux Installation - HP Pavilion N5210

Hardware:

Celeron 650
64Meg RAM
10GB Harddisk
Savage MX video card
ESS Allegro sound chip
DSB-650 TX USB-Ethernet Box

Software:

Redhat 7.1
And kaweth.o driver for DSB-650TX

Notes:

Installs like a charm. No problems during installation. For sound, need to run sndconfig once after installation.
For the savage driver of XFree86, the option SWCursor has to be turned on.
Here are some files which can be used.

XF86Config-4
kaweth.o
dmesg logs

Still wondering about:

How to get those power buttons to hibernate automatically?
