Keith,
... To the best of my recollection everything fire up and the only thing
I had to play with was the video driver.  It fired up, in 8.04LTS with a
screen at 480x640 and the best I could get with the generic driver was
600x800.  I then took the info from the install and data sheet and
googled the video model + "ubuntu" and found that the correct driver was
to be found in synaptic and loaded it from there.  The machine left here
with 1024x768 and I seem to recall that it would go higher, might be
wrong.
