To allow the USB devices to be read and written by a non-privileged user, create a file called  ''/etc/udev/rules.d/51-garmin.rules'' with the following contents: 
{{{SYSFS{idVendor}=="091e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0003", MODE="666"}}}

!! HP 6830s 

My latest laptop requires some extra tweaks :

! Sound

Add the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:
{{{
options snd-hda-intel model=laptop enable=1 index=0
}}}

! Video driver

Install the native ATI/AMD video driver if you want 3D effects. If you don't need that, the default driver is fine too.
