And the Version: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.14rc1 (Tue Jan 09 09:56:17 2007 UTC).
I may install ArchLinux later over the top of my windows partition as soon as I grab a few files off it since I dotn use it any more.

"Realtek ID 660" means that this codec is not properly supported . You really want it to be "Realtek ALC660-VD"
So, install ALSA 1.0.14rc3 version either as separate module, or the one which comes with 2.6.21 kernel.

If anyone is interested in getting the OLED display working, there is a driver: http://lapsus.berlios.de/asus_oled.html . Enjoy

Actually it is based on 'asusoled' (https://launchpad.net/asusoled) program which is available for some time already,
but it doesn't need patched usbhid, and works fine with asus-laptop.

WOW, tnx

I'll try

tanis · 2007-09-25 08:15:45

And now Asus_OLED has small utility for converting graphic files into the format recognized by the driver, or can control it directly - so it behaves just like asusoled, but also has some additional features - like automatic image rescalling, or flashing&rolling of OLED pictures.

How did you get the Realtek ALC660-VD working?

It is driving me mad, that it just doesn't give out a single loud. However this is in every distro the same thing.

Was there a trick?

tanis · 2007-11-07 01:09:53

With 2.6.23? There is no trick. It just works.
Run alsamixer and check if it reports 'Chip: Realtek ALC660-VD'.
If so, check volume of PCM and Front channels, and see if they are muted or not...

I'm a bit confused about enabling hotkeys on my Asus A6JC, since brightness up/dn and lcd on/off just work out-of-the-box.

I have
- downloaded acpi4asus-cvs from aur
- blacklisted asus_acpi and added asus-laptop to MODULES and added in asus_acpid in DAEMONS in /etc/rc.cont
- made ~/.acpi4asus/ and ~/.acpi4asus/events subfolder
- pressed these hotkeys and

tail -f log

to see the output
- made some scripts such as

vol_up:

#increase volume
event=hotkey.*30[[:space:]].*
action=/usr/bin/amixer set PCM "5%+";

vol_down:

#decrease volume
event=hotkey.*31[[:space:]].*
action=/usr/bin/amixer set PCM "5%-";

vol_mute:

#mute volume
event=hotkey.*32[[:space:]].*
action=/usr/bin/amixer set PCM 0;

but they don't seem to work. I'm wondering what's wrong but I don't know... :|

I'm not an expert of asus_acpid, but you can try lapsus, it's also in aur.

I'd prefer a script-based solution, since i use Gnome and lapsus is designed for KDE...

Still in trouble with asus_acpid. When arch boots it displays this warning:

asus_acpid: can't open unix domain socket on /var/run/acpid.socket: Connection refused

:(

Ok, this procedure works for me:
1) download acpi4asus-cvs from aur
2) add asus-laptop to MODULES in /etc/rc.conf
3) let /usr/sbin/asus_acpid start automatically. I've done it using gnome-session-properties; old method (adding asus_acpid to DAEMONS in /etc/rc.conf) doesn't work for me.
4)

mkdir  ~/.acpi4asus/
mkdir ~/.acpi4asus/events

5) press the hotkeys you want to setup (i.e. Fn + F12 - Volume Up) and

tail -f log

to see the output:

[Tue Dec  4 15:13:33 2007] starting up 
[Tue Dec  4 15:13:33 2007] 0 rules loaded 
[Tue Dec  4 15:13:33 2007] received event "hotkey ATKD 00000030 000000e5" 
[Tue Dec  4 15:13:33 2007] completed event "hotkey ATKD 00000030 000000e5"

Focus your attention on last two numbers in the first numeric string (30) that identify every function keys.
6) place in ~/.acpi4asus/events/ a textfile made up of two relevant rows event and action, and a script in ~/.acpi4asus/ for each key.
Let's see Volume Up files:
~/.acpi4asus/volup

#increase volume
event=hotkey.*30[[:space:]].*
action=~/.asus_acpi/hotk_volup.sh

(where 30 identify this function key as seen before).
~/.asus_acpi/hotk_volup.sh

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/amixer set PCM "5%+"

7) make this script executable

chmod +x ~/.asus_acpi/hotk_volup.sh

8) restart asus_acpid

# /etc/rc.d/asus_acpid restart

I've setup Volume Down and Volume Mute as well, these are the files:
~/.acpi4asus/voldn

#decrease volume
event=hotkey.*31[[:space:]].*
action=~/.asus_acpi/hotk_voldn.sh

~/.asus_acpi/hotk_voldn.sh

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/amixer set PCM "5%-"

~/.acpi4asus/volmute

#mute volume
event=hotkey.*32[[:space:]].*
action=~/.asus_acpi/hotk_volmute.sh

~/.asus_acpi/hotk_volmute.sh

#!/bin/sh
o=`amixer sget PCM Playback Volume | grep "Left:" | cut -d "[" -f 3 | cut -d "]" -f 1`
if [ -z $o ]; then
amixer set PCM 100%
else
amixer set PCM 0%
fi

That's all, hope it helps you.
Giorgio
