Asus1201ha

Ubuntu 10.04

Overall impression quite similar to previous 9.10 installation on this device: Most devices like graphics, wireless, sound, etc. work out of the box and very nice optimization for this device!

Issues:

   * for wireless issue (see Karmic) Run '

sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic

' instead.

   * Microphone does not work out of the box. Install the pulse audio volume control app 'sudo apt-get install pavucontrol' and at the Input Devices tab, set front left channel to 100% and the front right channel to 0%.
   * Hotkeys don't work out of the box, you have to add a kernel parameter to the grub config:
         o Run 'sudo gedit /etc/default/grub'
         o

           Edit the line with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and add " acpi_osi=Linux". The line should then look like -> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux"
         o Save and then run 'sudo update-grub'
         o Reboot 
   * Multitouch doesn't work out of the box.
         o Open your textediting program e/g gedit. kate, kwrie, mousepad etc
         o Paste this in it. (Each command on a separate line. )
