[edit] Configurations

[edit] Graphic Card and Xorg

HP Pavilion dv1000 have an i810 compatible Video card, so you must have the package xf86-video-i810 and u must use i810 as Driver, your Device section should look like this

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device Number 1"
	Driver		"i810"					# xf86-video-i810 Package
	BusID		"PCI:0:2:0"				# Reported by lspci
	VideoRam	65536					# This will force Xorg to allocate 65Mb for the video card
	Screen		0
EndSection

The monitor runs under resolution 1280x768 I achieved 75Hz with my configurations which i think the best you can achieve with this monitor,your monitor section should look like this:

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"LCD Monitor"
	Option		"DPMS"
	HorizSync	28.0 - 96.0
	VertRefresh	50.0 - 75.0
	UseModes	"Mode 1280 x 768 @ 75 Hz"
EndSection

Section "Modes"
	Identifier "Mode 1280 x 768 @ 75 Hz"
	# 1280x768 @ 75.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 60.15 kHz; pclk: 102.98 MHz
	Modeline	"1280x768_75.00"  102.98  1280 1360 1496 1712  768 769 772 802  -HSync +Vsync

[edit] Modules

[edit] Wireless

You have to use ipw2200 in order to make your wifi connection work... So first let's see if your kernel support it

zcat /proc/config.gz | grep IPW2200

the output should look like

CONFIG_IPW2200=m

or like

CONFIG_IPW2200=y

Arch stock kernel does support ipw2200

Now install the package ipw2200 and add to /etc/modprobe.conf the below line

options ipw2200 led=1

[edit] Sound

The sound will work out of the box, make sure you have alsa-lib alsa-utils alsa-oss packages installed, add urself to audio group and that's it...
