I was able to get YDL-2.2 to install.  The only trouble was that it needed
the "hdc=ide-scsi" fix.  Except that there isn't a second channel so it needs
to be "hdb=ide-scsi".  After that, YDL fell on to it.

Sound worked out of the box for me.  The only trouble, post-install, that I
had was playing DVDs.  The picture was full of artifacts.  I'm assuming it
had to do with the NVidia chip.  No biggy, I'll watch DVDs on the TV.

I only had the iLamp-800 for a couple of days.  Our local Linux User Group
had a linux showcase/expo and I was able to get the iLamp loaned to me for
the weekend.  It was definately the show-stopper.

Good luck.
