= Overview =
|
||
|
* CPU: Intel Core 2 Solo U3500 @ 1.40GHz (speeds: 0.8, 1.2 and 1.4GHz), 3MB L2
|
||
|
* Screen: 1366x768 LED
|
||
|
|
||
|
= BIOS versions =
|
||
|
* 1.10 - average ACPI temperature around 34°C, good GL playing
|
||
|
* 1.20 - average ACPI temperature around 39°C, good GL playing
|
||
|
* 1.31 - big slowdown in X windows from time to time, GL games with annoying slowdowns regularly
|
||
|
|
||
|
The most recent BIOS updates (1.20 onwards) come with a DOS flasher; older come only with a windows flasher. I used a [http://www.pcengines.ch/freedos.htm freedos image] stored in a USB flash memory to boot freedos and flash the BIOS.
|
||
|
|
||
|
= Drivers =
|
||
|
All provided in linux 2.6.32 kernels.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Linux 2.6.29 has problems at least with the wire ethernet card (Attansic Technology Corp. Device 1063). Loading and unloading the ethernet card driver module (atl1c) helps getting a working link, although it will change from eth0 to eth1, eth2, or another interface name.

== Backlight ==
|
||
|
Having disabled Kernel Mode Setting for the i915 kernel drm module (kernel parameter ''nomodeset''), use ''xrandr'' to set:
|
||
|
xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL combination
|
||
|
xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT 300 # ~1000, max light.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If those steps make your mouse cursor not appear, switch to another VT, and then back to X, and it will come.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Synaptics pad ==
|
||
|
I like the pad speed set by:
|
||
|
synclient MaxTapTime=0 MaxSpeed=1.12 MinSpeed=0.6 AccelFactor=0.001 VertEdgeScroll=1
|
||
|
Install the ''xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.0'' for ''synclient'' to be in your PATH.

Usual pm-utils work, with pm-suspend and pm-hibernate.
