Support for ati x200m, atheros 5007eg, Acer Orbicam
Out of the box support for these hardware components:
- Atheros AR5007EG wireless lan card, integrated on new laptop models, notably the Acer Aspire 5100 series starting mid -2007
Currently Madwifi reports HAL status 13 for Hardware revision not supported. Ndiwswrapper installs the appropriate inf file from the windows driver but doesn't work. See: http://
Also, can't disable the Madwifi driver from Restricted Driver Manager UI.
-ENE multimedia card readers SD, MMC, xD, Memory Stick Pro/Duo, integrated. Suggested backport here: http://
-Bison, Suyin, Logitech integrated webcams. Brand name used: Acer Orbicam series.
-Acer ACPI support for enabling, disabling devices, accurate battery status, display brightness control and extra customizable keys
-ATI X200M Integrated Graphics Processor with the restricted driver won't display accelerated graphics nor desktop effects for Beryl or Compiz because of no composition.
-ATI Southbridge features not supported. ALSA does not detect the actual hardware and instead uses ALCXXX disabling stereo analog/digital output and integrated Microphone. Recompiling solves the output problem.
System used: Acer Aspire 5100AWLMi, technical details here: http://
These problems make the experience so bad that I'm forced to use Microsoft Windows Vista to regain functionality. it would be nice if someone fixed some of these for Gutsy. Thank you.
P.S.: I'm not exactly sure this is where I should post this(I'm sorry).
