[Alex Thomsen Leth]

hello.

the current kernel 2.6.8-1 dosnt have the asus_acpi build into it.

Add asus_acpi to /etc/modules.

I believe Paul Sladen was working on automating part of this.

Hello Alex,

Could you post the contents of '/proc/interupts' and '/proc/cpuinfo'.

Also, can you think of anything else would would help us identify your machine
from an auto-detection point of view, as needing the specific 'asus-acpi' module?

Hi,

Have you tried with the latest live-cd.

Thanks

It's working here with Hoary. I think we can close this bug.

[Paul Sladen (sladen)]

Excellent.

Hotkeys (including automatically loading the 'asus' module) should work
out-of-the-box with Ubuntu 5.10. Can you test the development series later in
the development cycle and re-open this bug if it's not working under Breezy.

Many Thanks, -Paul
