It has been several months since I ran Fedora Core 3 on my Dell Latitude
D600. My son has turned me into a MAC zealot. I got an I-book and have
not looked back.
Anyway. I'll take a stab at it. My first and only question is are you
running the latest version with the latest firmware? Those drivers are
very much "in development". I did have quite a few problems with the
early versions including something like you describe. Go get the latest
sources and firmware and see if the problem goes away.
As a side note, you may get a lot more help if you would include more
information such as the Distro and kernel version you are running.
