[opensuse] 11.2 on Eeepc
I installed 11.2 on a eeepc 1002ha and I'm wondering what are all the KMPs listed in the following repository for?: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/SuSEee:/EeePC-Ext-Projects/o... Should I use them?, I found them looking for eeecontrol.

Well I probably cant answer you directly but since I found the subject of the thread instigating :P I would like to say this: I installed a normal 32 bit copy of 11.2 on my eeepc1000H with KDE live cd and the installation was a breeze :) No problem as of yet....after say a kinda complete installation for me.. which includes all development libraries,kernel source, integrated environments like kdevelop4, mono etc. also things like intel IPP and intel MKL libraries which are usually heavy for a cute tiny eeepc :P . In addition to this I was a bit sceptic before installing the KDE as the DE(given that I am old adorer of it, though I simply love the plainess of Gnome) mainly because of the Plasma thingy, but since I had already tried kde 4.3 with fedora11 on same eeepc without a problem, I gave 11.2 kde live cd a shot without having troubles eventually. regards Aamir 2009/11/15 Ciro Iriarte <cyruspy@gmail.com>:

Do you really need eeecontrol? I've installed 11.2 on my EeePC, and didn't find anything missing in functionality that would be provided by eeecontrol (then again, I might be missing the obvious).

From the official list, i'm interested in:
# ACPI support for hotkeys, LCD brightness control and hardware toggles # Toggle hardware (WiFi, Bluetooth, card reader, webcam, touchpad) on and off Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I haven't tested Bluetooth... but WiFi, cardreader, webcam, on/off toggles all work for me... brightness up/down works... volume up/down and mute all work... The sleep button also works to sleep and wake up again. Touchpad on/off doesn't seem to work, but I've never used it.. nor looked to see why it's not toggling (I just tested it now). Basically... without installing eeecontrol I have what appears to be everything working out-of-the-box without needing it. One thing I thought I'd need/want is the CPU scaling, but KDE4 has all the controls for that... for my use pattern, I don't need/miss it. I've set the profiles for on AC Power, Battery etc and set the CPU scaling appropriately.
