Hello,
I am trying to get acerhdf to build on this netbook so I can get the fan speed regulated better.
The package from the AUR: acerhdf, wont build. I first tried using packer. That did not work so I did it manually using the makepkg method. Still no luck here is my error output:
make -C /lib/modules/3.6.10-1-ARCH/build SUBDIRS=/tmp/packerbuild-1000/acerhdf/acerhdf/src/acerhdf_kmod modules

Aborting...
The build failed.
Thanks for any and all help.

One, acerhdf has been part of the kernel for a looooooong time now, so no need to compile anything. Two, it doesn't support the D250, so chances are high it doesn't support the D270 either.

Ok, then. I am correct in assuming there is no other way of getting the fan regulated then, right?
Offline
Probably not.
PS. Nice machine. Looks good, very cheap, even has variants with Linux pre-installed. Too bad CedarView graphics are such a pain in the butt.

I have a D250 and I tried everything in the world and couldn't regulate the fan.
Even lm_sensors fails to work.

ok then. I will probably keep an eye out for something.
Gusar, although the graphics is a pain to deal with I didn't have too many problems. I did initially struggle with getting it to work under plain ol' Arch. I decided to give ArchBang a try and it worked out of box (at least it seems to ). lol. I got an extended battery and thing last for like some where around 7 hours. Overall, I'm quite happy with it.

Well, unaccelerated graphics is not a pain - gma500_gfx and xf86-video-modesetting. But if you want to get acceleration working, and hardware video decoding, that's something else entirely.
