Attached below.  I've noticed some discrepancies between this output and 
what I've observed in the BIOS set up, namely video, sound and ethernet 
are listed as disabled (below) but are enabled in the BIOS set up.  The 
video and ethernet are working OK but the sound card does not appear to 
be found.  I've discussed the sound card issue with the appropriate 
developers and their consensus is that it is not a problem in the sound 
software but at a deeper level in PCI or ACPI.

If you wish me to test kernel changes to investigate these problems (or 
any other issues) I'm happy to help so don't hesitate to ask.
