Notes and Observations:
1. Function key will not switch from LCD to external monitor. External monitor is supported, but the external monitor must be connected during boot time, and will not switch to LCD using function key.
2. Wireless adapter was not detected during install of Red Hat Client 5. Required installation of NDIS driver. See this configuration note for details. http://www.linux-tested.com/notes/CFG_NOTE_4965_RHC5.html
3. Laptop does not recover properly when entering powersave mode unless an external monitor is attached.
4. Audio adapter requires the following to be installed for Red Hat Client 5 and SLED 10 SP1:
