Processor type and features

CONFIG_SMP=y
CONFIG_MPENTIUMM=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BKL=y

System configuration

FIXME

ACPI

Problems

After pressing Fn+F4 or Fn+F12, these combinations won't be recognized anymore. In order to reenable them, I had to reset and remask my hotkeys.

$ echo reset >/proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey
$ echo enable,0xffff >/proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey

X configuration

Some important notice when you are using the proprietary drivers, make sure you DISABLED the COMPOSITE extension, otherwise DRI will be disabled and you may notice some graphic bugs.

Problems

Some things aren't working correctly and I'm trying to find a solution.

Not working
  • Fn-Key combinations aren't working fine, like Fn+F4, Fn+F12 or the Powerbutton, the kernel driver doesn't support the chipset, so I have to wait.
  • When I try to exit the window manager, it seems that the whole system hangs.
