Comment (by Urumi):

 I've also tried to use the latest nightly build of Haiku with a Dell
 Latitude LS. Video seems to work fine -- with the neomagic accelerant
 running fine, however audio has been tricky.

 Haiku simply doesn't see the sound card. In OSS, the driver has been
 deprecated to reside in the attic folder -- even if symlinked and compiled
 back in -- OSS cannot detect the card.

 The only working driver I've found that can see the sound card is
 http://www.haiku-files.org/files/optional-
 packages/OpenSound-x86-gcc2-2008-06-21.zip, but that results in a video
 glitch during playback with a stripe appearing across the screen with
 different colors inside -- and eventually freezes the system.

 Drivers from around that date no longer compile with Haiku unfortunately,
 so it's hard to know whether it's an issue with the binary package.
