I have not been able to grab this laptop but a friend tested a driver packs and told me that in this model, the video was not available with the latest driverpacks. Just wanted to make sure it was since he has not brought me the laptop to test it.

Acer Aspire 5310-2721 does not have SATA Driver. Am using latest version of all driverpacks up to RIGHT NOW wink

I went here to get it --> http://us.acer.com/acer/service.do?Lang … 2054404012
There you select Notebook, then Aspire, then model 5310. The Sata drivers are just below in the list.

@OverFlow - Yes, if you look closer, 7 is just Vista with the many fixes they did not make for it.

For the whole Drivers for Linux thing. I have been using Linux for about 7 or 8 years i lost count. I even make the tests with driverpacks.net on my ubuntu system via VirtualBox. anyway, creating a driverpack for Linux would be a failure in the long run because:

1. Every 3-4 months that the kernel upgrades it includes a lot of new drivers and fixes many more.
2. Distros tipically give you the change to install with one click some propietary drivers like Nvidia, Ati, Wireless Drivers. In this case Ubuntu. Or the install by default, in this case Mint.
3. Compatibility which i have study over the course of 4 years (when i learn about the existence of http://kernelnewbies.org/ which shows the new drivers on the kernel) has grown a lot for each version of the Kernel. So basically in a years time you could have over 2K new supporting drivers on the kernel.
4. Even IF a driverpack for Linux would be made, you would have to go faster than the Distros you are aiming for and the speed of which the Kernel adds and fixes drivers.

This is not to give a bad rep of creating a linux driver. But this is to make you see that on the Linux World, things move rapidly and have been since some years ago.
Now for the good news.
There ARE some drivers that take A LOT to join the kernel. A good example is always ADSL Modem Drivers like Huawei, Ryge, Starbridge and others. This have always shown in almost all distros to have detection problems via USB. Another would be WebCams that have problems on the v4l webpage.

I think this is all i had to say wink

Best news of the year

Tested all and i have to say this worked good. Tested on over 120+ PCs. It was awesome to see that in all, all drivers got detected and everything went smoothly.

EDIT: I have to add several HP Laptops were tested, a lot of Intel P4 and Core 2 Duo and a lot of AMD also. I even tested several old sis/pc chips/asrock/foxconn ones. Other Asus and MSI were also tested in the many PCs i checked. Have to thank my cousins and close friends for helping me test this amount.

i have been reading this forum since some months ago and i just need to say that you guys, well most of the people here are of a free will spirit kind of people. I have never in the many forums i have registered myself seen so many positive people together. I must admit i am not like you guys but it makes me happy to read what you guys say everytime. Wish i could meet some of you in person just to know. Keep up the great work and the positive vibe.

A oki that explains why i have not yet seen this pack updated. I was starting to think it was merged with the LAN pack.

(hold left hand) I promise...(notice wrong hand raised...raise right hand...drop left hand)...I promise also. Will test on dire emergencies

All i can say is that you made me cry..i won't bother you again /cry /sob

Where can i get the WLAN nightly drivers since they are not here anymore {url removed} or here {url removed} for testing and finding what drivers do not work.

You would think i see it but no i jumped to the D folder directly lol. Sorry about that. Well it does not have those modems.

Does this include adsl modems? For example the ones i have had the chance to manage are ZTE, MT882, RYGE and Starbridge 2.0. Or are all of this usb adsl modems on another pack?

Very sorry abdou. This were clients that needed their PC fixed in a quick way. But i will use the HWID tool next time i bump into a driver that does not install correct or is not detected.

First let me tell you this is one of the best ideas ever. It is like doing a install with Linux, installs all drivers. Very good idea.

Hi to all, this is my first post whohoo. ok for the require drivers. Somehow the last update from the nightly drivers i think fixed that, but anyway just to make sure:

HP Pavilion ZV5000
Driver not working: Sound
Error: Installs Realtek driver but that is wrong, should be Soundmax or something similar
Alternative: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp28501-29000/sp28552.exe

Compaq Presario C500
Modelo: C551NR Notebook PC / C571NR Notebook PC
Driver not working: Sound
Error: Shows Audio Device for High definition audio bus
Alternative: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp35501-36000/sp35940.exe

HP Pavilion dv2000t
Driver not working: Sound
Error: Shows Audio Device for High definition audio bus
Alternative: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp35501-36000/sp35682.exe

Was gonna mention this three anyway but just saw the latest updates:



Changed

AV2\

  Cleared out massive HWID overlap with RealTek
  <---- This is one of the problems i think on the models mentioned above
SIS\

  Replaced missing .inf

SIS2\

  Deconflicted HWID overlap with RealTek
  <---- This is one of the problems i think on the models mentioned above


Updated

C2\

  C-Media 8738/8768 from DriverVer 11/21/2007,(1.1.7) to  08/24/2008,(1.2.1)

  <---- This is one of the problems i think on the models mentioned above
Deleted

-Y\ Contained generic HWID (pci\ven_8086&dev_2485) conflicted with Realtek/SoundMax
  <---- This is one of the problems i think on the models mentioned above
-zD3\ Duplicate with z2\

-zS2\ Duplicate with z2\

-zi\ Exact duplicate with z2\ and contained super-generics
To Do: Still HWID conflicts between C\ and SIS\

So basically either the DP crew has some mental powers that can read minds or i just got lucky.
