Why isnt the SD card reader code in the mainline kernel?
]]>Problem: with acpi_osi='' EVERYTHING works fine except for i cant find ACPI0008:00 in /sys/bus/acpi/devices.
When I acpi_osi='!Windows 2012' i can see the sensor but my fn-keys don't work properly.
how do i make it visible without kernel parameters?
Otherwise a great laptop.
]]>I'm trying set up dual boot, but my UEFI system doesn't seem to recognize the USB. I have tried with multiple file formats and bootable USB tools.
]]>The only way I seem able to install everything so it works is with nvidia-dkms, and the only way to stop nvidia loading is with a hard blacklist (install nvidia /bin/false) instead of just 'blacklist nvidia' and 'blacklist nvidia_uvm'. Where the "hard" blacklist wont let me turn on the card, ant the other blacklist seems to do nothing since dkms loading nvidia during boot for some unknown reason.
Still working on it, will edit my last answer
]]>OK, looks like I was cheerful too early. The notebook froze after suspend again... I will try once again without the i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 option - maybe that's the thing that was breaking the suspend all along.
Thank you so much! I was wondering why I didn't seem to be able to get suspend to work, wether I had custom kernel from motley or just standard arch from repositories! Removing that option finally fixed it for me.
@kligegilk: I had exactly that problem (albeit on my UX302LN) but removing the i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 option also seems to have removed the problem. While apparently not affecting battery performance at all
Just for reference, I picked up a few more kernel paramaters that really did make a difference (from the wiki i believe), thus my /etc/default/grub line 4 looks as follows:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="add_efi_memmap pcie_aspm=force drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.semaphores=1 acpi_osi="
(And for other potential new people, like myself, i ran
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
to apply to my grub config, where the last part is the path to my config file)
EDIT: It didn't work entirely, only made it better and working on a more frequent basis..
]]>Sometimes, somehow, the suspend goes wrong and the fan seems still turning. When I want to resume, there's now way. Surprising fact : I can't use the power button to resume but it works with any other key on the keyboard. Then I get a blank screen.
Any idea or does anyone get the same thing ? Do you think the custom kernel could work for the UX303 as well.
Thanks a lot !
]]>first of all: big thank you for your work to motley. I have yet to throughly test his kernel, but it seams to be working and my ntb didn't die on me after suspend since the switch.
A few little remarks:
- Despite the motley's initial note, the "i915.i915_enable_rc6=1" option, which should improve battery time quite a bit, seams to be working just fine with the current version of his code (kernel 3.18.1). What was the problem with it?
- I merged motley's kernel with the patch from Mathias Gottschlag for the Focaltech touchpad (multitouch) and the touchpad now works well. It required some additional Xorg configuration (enable synaptics driver and evdev), but I've got my two-finger scrolling and multi-touch in linux finally! The patch seams to be in waiting list to make it to the official kernel, but it's been there for some time... you may want to pull the patch to your code yourself until that happens.
- I seam to have some trouble with recovering ALSA sound card states during the boot after I switched to this kernel, but it doesn't seam to cause any troubles for now and it may be just a problem related to my configuration... I'll investigate the error messages and see what's going on.
Anyway, good job!
]]>I have released a new 3.18.1 stable kernel that I am now using with some new features, thanks to some merged contributions.

The old kernel script can still be used for building the kernel the old way, but I have decided to go this route since this is how I typically manage my custom kernels for Android, servers etc. When I first did this, it was a down and dirty project and I didn't think it had much of a life. However, it is still here and I know folks are still using it.
Reese, webcam is working great with Arch/Cheese in the latest patches and the new kernel. It was problematic at times, but not sure if it was the kernel or not.
iceTwy, my sound and mic is OK in Linux but I don't have Windows installed to compare anymore. Now that you mention, the base is kinda lame. I'll let you know if I learn anything about sound.
RoyalPalace, thanks for the kind words. My kernel is mainly just configuration changes and the merging of other's nice work. Some of the bits and pieces we are playing around with might make it in (Alcor driver has a good chance), but the other stuff is a very tough sell.
Happy Holidays to all!

]]>As far as I can tell, the subwoofer -- or the surround sound system, SonicMaster -- isn't working because the options disable one of the audio devices.
Is there a workaround?
