I have actually managed to do it before on another acer travelmate 507.  I auccessfully installed Redhat 7.0 with everything working fine.   I
did find however that XWindows was quite slow, but didn't have any of the problems you outlined.  I am willing to do it but I can't do it for a
couple of weeks because I am already working 60 hours a week.

Let me know if that suits you.

Cheers,

                Daniel Reurich.
