Yes he is. No idea what could be going wrong I followed the wiki to the letter.

I'm going through the kernel config, just wondering if anyone has anything they'd like to see in it - filesystems, drivers, anything important to you that you'd like included?
An excellent idea, I've just finished reading this thread and was feeling 'forced' towards the stock kernel since none of the alternatives would leave me a fully working system. I don't know the kernel well enough to give precise module list (long time since I built a kernel on anything other then FreeBSD.) and the MMC/audio/video bits are covered above:
Anyway; my essentials are;
- USB drives, all filesystems and types (ie. the full suite of filesystem and USB Filesystem device drivers.)
- Bluetooth, at least for CSR compatible devices
Plus:
I'm currently running Fedora 10 on my 110, and I've got the elevator set as per this http://wiki.eeeuser.com/changing_the_io_scheduler posting, which suggests 'elevator=deadline' and setting the fifo_batch to 1 (I do that crudely with a line added to rc.local).
I'd be interested to see if others think this is better than 'noop',? Is it worth setting the kernel default to this ? and/or setting the batch to 1, it makes no sense grouping reads on a SSD, I don't know if this also affects the noop elevator.
My anger management class pissed me off. - anon

Well, my Arch install is a bit screwed up at the moment, so I can't really compile anything, but I'm awaiting the arrival of the HDD I bought for my AAO (should come this week). As soon as I receive it I'll do a fresh install, get the kernel package out, and also post a detailed guide on how to get GEM working properly.

Right, got my 6-cell battery today. It's rather nice.
Anyhow, I've also installed kernel26 from core today. No real difference, except that acerhdf-2.1 can be installed now. Suspend with a SD-card is broken though, as people have said. Anybody got a solution to this?
Offline
Actually, know what? I'm gonna try Fedora 10 on it. I'll report back to see how it works out.

kernel26-oneice AUR updated to 2.6.28.5http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22864 and piie's acerhdf was built into the kernel as a module.
I would like to know where to find the ath5k patch to make LED work and looking forward to see the direction on how to get GEM working properly.

Section "Module" Load "glx" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "xtrap" Load "dbe" Load "freetype" EndSection
You just need to add 'Load "synaptics"' to that list:
Section "Module"
Load "synaptics"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
Load "extmod"
Load "xtrap"
Load "dbe"
Load "freetype"
EndSection
That should fix the problem.

Fedora is working rather nice, though I'm still on the .27 kernel so the aspire-one drivers aren't here yet. Suspend with a SD-card isn't working, but that's nothing new.

I have a trouble with mounting of extend SDHC card.
I try setup Arch and use this wiki for it.
# It is recommended to permanently add a SD(HC) card into the left sd card reader to extend storage space.
# Before running /arch/setup mount your SD card to be visible to the installer.
I plug 8GB SDHC card into left cardreader and rebuting netbook. Boot device is USB Multi Flashreader.
After login, I dont see /dev/mmcblk0p1
dmesg show sda and sdb only.
sda is Direct Acess Multi Flashreader (external USB booting device)
sdb is Direct-Access SSDPAMM0008G1(internal "HDD")
but I don't see any info about leftside flash SDHC card or cardreader.
If I do not plug SDHC card - result is exactly the same.
P.S. SDHC formatted for FAT32.
What doing?

I set up the /home on SD-card after installation. Nothing is installed into the /home directory, so it is safe to modify the fstab after installation (but before you create your first non-root user).

Well well, looks like I'm going back to arch. Fedora worked rather well, but arch worked better in my opinion.
E: Up and working with EXT4 for the root filesystem. It's extremely fast!

I mostly customize the config to ensure Joystick (gotta love the zsnes), Bluetooth, and ReiserFS support. If those could be included on the repo version would save me a lot of trouble.
.. or a way to more easily make these modifications? I'm still rather new at the whole kernel modification thing. :D

i had been mounting /home on an sdhc, however that would quirk out too often. I'm trying out using autofs on the card...i intend to install some games and other working data there. Hopefully it'll work better with suspend/resume. At least I won't have to econfigure firefox and/or xfce every week like i had been doing.

I myself also use a SDHC card on the left reader for my entire /home. Same problem occurs though...It's the undetection at bootup of the SDHC when using the stock kernel although this issue is not present upon using gothicknight's kernel26-one .27 version..:) To solve my problem, I have to manually mount my SDHC which is known as "mmcblk0p1" by my system..;) I hope there would be some script that could automatically do this...That would be cool!!!And I might stay to the stock kernel...;) Btw, the fs I'm using on my SSD and SDHC is xfs...And it's working great...:)

I try setup kernel downloaded here:
http://www.archlinux.org/download/
Current Release: 2009.02
Included Kernel: 2.6.28-ARCH
Offline
I also use the stock kernel atm...So are you still having problems with your SDHC?:)
Do you see (mmcblk0 and mmcblk0p1) when you do
ls /dev/
?

Have you included "pciehp" on you modules list?

are you mean the package in "3. Select packages" of Installation Main Menu? I don't see it package...
if NO - where I can see it? )

pciehp is a module which needs to be loaded in order to use both readers...
Read this http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ace … figuration it contains lots of information...;) This guide uses the stock kernel..On the last part, one of the suggestion is to use a custom kernel..The one I use is gothicknight's kernel26-one which can be found at the aur...:) But it's a .28 version, the one I'm using is the .27...Try to search this thread...Gothicknight posted a link to the last update of the .27 version if you want to use it...:)

If you entered it correctly into /etc/fstab, you should be able to mount it automatically by inserting
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1
into /etc/rc.local.

Following the wiki, I got a 1024x600 framebuffer working, but only with the stock kernel. Gothics complains that it's missing the uvesafb module. Would be great if ov could get it to work with his kernel, if he's still interested in doing it.
