EEE 1101ha issues (sound, wireless)

Hi, I have been trying to fix these problems for a week now and I need help.

1 The sound is not working. Alsa gives no soundcard found. With alsaconf I can choose Intel HDA (sch Poulsbo). That doesnt work.  It seems that the module is not detected at all. System is up to date. The soundcard is supposed to be intel hda MID, with a Realtek ALC269 chip according to someone on ubuntuforums. Output at the bottom of the post.

2 Wireless works nicely in the start. but when it disconnects it seems I cant restart it while xserver is running? Can this be true? I have to back to console and modprobe -r rndis_wlan then add it again and reconnect or reboot.

3 The resolution is stretched. The netbook is a widescreen, how can I set the proper resolution (idiot question but bear with me)? I tried to install the proper ksb driver, but it fails during building from aur.

4 Webcam works.

Output for sound troubleshooting:

"Men have called me mad; but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence– whether much that is glorious– whether all that is profound– does not spring from disease of thought– from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect." - E.
