[opensuse-factory] HP mini 5102
Hi, I recently installed the factory kernel (3.1rc7), xorg and mesa on an OS 11.4 installation on hp mini 5102. Everything worked on first boot, suspend to disk and ram work fine; some observations follow: 1. sky2 (Yukon Optima 88E8059) would hang the system, if I removed the ethernet cable shortly after removing AC power, or if I disabled WOL with ethertool. Also, the ethernet interface would always connect at 10MBps and not respond to connection loss with sky2. Changing to sk98lin fixed the above. 2. I added the following entry to /etc/storage-fixup.conf # Reported drive model: TOSHIBA MK2556GSY rule hp-mini-5102 dmi system-manufacturer Hewlett-Packard dmi system-product-name HP Mini 5102 ata model TOSHIBA MK2556GSY act hdparm -B 192 $DEV in order to prevent the ~20 head parks/hour from straining the disk for no reason. 3. The maximum brightness of the backlight would be the level set when linux booted. The maximum in Windows was clearly higher. I fixed this with setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=FF in /etc/rc.d/boot.local. 4. I built an RPM package for the HP driveguard 3d protection for the HDD. The daemon is known as hpfall. Perhaps this should be included in factory. 5. The touch screen works fine, although multitouch gestures and right- click are missing. Perhaps input-evtouch will resolve this, however I have no idea how to set it up. 6. Before I upgraded kernel and KDE, I am certain that two finger gestures would work on the touchpad. After the upgrade, only one finger is registered. 7. The ondemand cpufreq governor would have 1 GHz as the maximum frequency due to a BIOS limit. Appending processor.ignore_ppc=1 to the boot prompt fixed this. 8. Wireless (BCM43224) works with the brcmsmac driver, which is in staging. However, I haven't tested it for more than simply listing the networks in NM. In earlier kernel versions only the proprietary wl.ko would work at all. Some hints/comments would be welcome.
