Fuijitsu/Siemens Lifebook 4215 driver



Hi folks,

any ideas how to get the F/S Lifebook 4215 running under Linux?
Specifically,

- the touchscreen/Wacom doesn't do anything here. I'm not clear whether
it is attached at the USB or at the serial port, but lsusb doesn't seem
to list anything from "Wacom". I also checked whether "/dev/ttyS0"
creates any characters when moving the stylus on the screen, but the
result is negative. Ditto on all "/dev/input/eventXX" devices, no go there.

- the sound is dead. It is supposed to be an hda_intel sound, but
nevertheless, alsa reports "no such device". The kernel log reveals
"hda-intel: no codecs initialized", but lspci reports the chipset
as

"Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition
Audio Controller (rev 02)"

- Last but not least, wireless seems to cause trouble as well. This is
an (according to lspci):

intel PRO/Wireless 3945AGB Network Connection (rev 02)


Any hints?

Thanks, Thomas
.
