Modem??”Your 56K, cable, or DSL modem also needs to be Freespire-compatible. Before
beginning your installation, check your equipment at www.linspire.com/linspire_
hardware_compatibility.php.
Network card??”Any Ethernet card is acceptable. Although Freespire does not specifically
recommend it, you would be wise to check the hardware compatibility list to ensure
your Ethernet adapter is supported.

Choosing and Installing a Linux Distribution Part III
Like most flavors of Linux, the range of hardware supported is quite wide. If you find that your
hardware is not on the supported devices list, check the hardware vendor??™s Web site for Debian
drivers for your device. It is entirely possible that you can install the driver manually (if Freespire
cannot configure it).
To debug hardware problems, select the Advanced option from the menu and then select
Diagnostics when booting from the Freespire CD or DVD. Running diagnostics shows
you any errors relating to the configuration or detection of your hardware. If you have already installed
Freespire, Diagnostics is available as the second option on the initial boot menu.
