For some ACPI hotkeys, the eeepc does not emit standards codes and in that case needs specific ACPI events mapping (that for some of them overlaps with standard/common one).

Also, for some actions triggered by ACPI events, there are some specific scripts to be run, like for example the wireless card on/off toggle.

This package should add the needed acpi scripts to solve those problems.

But from what I have seen some scripts needs adaptation for Ubuntu (like the wireless one that may use the ath5k driver instead of the madwifi one).

I'm trying to get some reliable scripts/package and I will send a patch here when it's working on my 701 eeepc.
