This blog started out as an install log of RedHat 9 on a Compaq Presario 2538cl laptop (linuxpresario.blogspot.com) . However, I soon started to include little logs to myself when I made configuration changes to software, etc. So, I've moved it over to our domain, and changed its name to Linux Log. Here you will find some tips & tricks related to Linux configuration on a laptop, as well as software related things that I run into. I log here things that worked for me, of course, your mileage may vary.

Any questions/comments? E-mail me at linux_atsign_boshoff|za|net.

ACPI Update

May 27, 2003

Checked today - the LCD brightness buttons work with the new acpi patched kernel. This is about all I need.

TODO:

1. Get the ACPI-patched kernel compiled to have battery status displayed in Gnome.
2. Get the winmodem to work.
3. Try to resolve the hang issues whenever firewire comes into the picture in Linux.
4. Get the one-touch buttons to work, such as the Internet, e-mail etc. shortcut buttons.
5. Resolve pcmcia issues.
