Description : Asus laptop extras
This project is a Linux kernel driver that allows owners of Asus laptops
to use all the functionality of their computers such as special keys,
brightness control, light sensor, bluetooth, etc.
It's included in the main kernel tree but outdated (two years old). It
would be nice if the CVS version was included in Debian as a separated
module os that we don't have to rely on uptream for updates.

Since my last mail, Linux 2.6.22, with acpi4asus > 0.31, entered testing. The
original upstream project is now abandoned, the development happening
directly in mainline. asus_acpi was replaced by asus-laptop, which "should
work with all new models without doing anything".
