Yegor Timoshenko 3c9f432a71 treewide: modules -> profiles, separate dirs, list in README (#29)
Enforce proper naming: all paths are lowercase and hyphen-separated,
if there's a line of models (aspire, macbook-pro, thinkpad) it becomes
a subdirectory. Documentation for profiles is moved to README files in
respective directories.

Add an Org mode table that lists all available profiles and their paths.

Instead of fetching repo locally, use a Nix channel. Making hardware
profiles read-only should improve quality and amount of participation
long-term.

= Overview =
* Processor: Intel Celeron 2955U @ 1.40GHz
* Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462

= Configuration =
The C720 comes with a Cypress APA touchpad. Support for this touchpad was added in kernel 3.17-rc1.
In order to get the touchpad working CONFIG_CHROME_PLATFORMS needs to be enabled.

For example, for touchpad support with the 3.18 kernel, the following should be added to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix:

  boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_3_18;
  nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = pkgs:
    { linux_3_18 = pkgs.linux_3_18.override {
        extraConfig =
          '''''''
            CHROME_PLATFORMS y
          ''''''';
      };
    };
