What I've read so far: http://tuxmobil.org/asus_l3800c_e.html http://developer.kde.org/~howells/l3800c My laptop runs Sarge with KDE3.1 from Sid. Most of the above seems to be correct, but in the power mgmt department I experience some deviations: - fn+Z freezes the machine if X (4.2.1 without DRI) is running - closing the lid doesn not freeze it, but the CPU, interrupt handling all seem to be suspended, but it stays hot and the fan goes on (end when it is opened the clock is lagging) - sometimes the CPU clock speed is reduced to 1200, but I don't know why It is with 2.4.20 + apm. Also: - the buttons next to the power button are not useable, not even with lineakd Anyone with similar experience? Or preferably better setup?
Ok, I do not know that machine you use, so I might step into something by this... First, the "state of the art" implies to me that the machine is comparably new. Are you sure you have support for apm? In your case there might be a better idea to take the deep dive into the ACPI ocean. I've set up my old Thinkpad for ACPI, and it works very nice for me. At least it satisfies my needs.
Take a look at ACPI. //Ivar -- ********************************************************************* Ivar Alm ! Where does Microsoft want to drag you today? ! Umeå, Sweden !
