a day in the life of wayne ward….

Well i aint blogged on this 4 a while what can i say??

Quality. Buy one.

Ive uploaded my acpi directory to my donloads folder for the asus 701 Eee. I made a slight mod to it to make the machine sleep when you close the lid!! I use kde 3.5.9 with kpowersave and it works great

Here

Hope it helps

If you get into your etc directory and as root
mv acpi acpi.bak
and then
tar xvzf acpi.tar.gz

either restart the asus or
/etc/init.d/acpid restart

Bingo!!

My laptop has been runing debain since christmas
No problems it sleeps allt eh programs i need wicked
I seen that kde 4.1 was released so i assumed they had fixed kdepim
So i went for it like a fool and barfed my laptop!!!! Damn!!
I pulled down the latest debian eeepc image (the lenny beta)
Copied it across to the sd card and did a install over wireless
No problems added unstable repos and installed kde 3.5.9
Worked a treat no problems !!!
Kde 4.1 is nice but still not ready 4 me im afraid
Go on say it why didnt you test in a virtual box baaa
