ALPS Glidepoint

28 februari 2005 Reacties uit

This is the touchpad on my laptop. I had to patch my kernel source with the patch (alps.patch) provided in the Synaptics source (http://freshmeat.net/projects/synaptics/).

I did not use this source for the XFree Synaptics driver, but i simply did apt-get install xfree86-driver-synaptics.
make sure you load the driver in Section “Module”:

Load  "synaptics"

and also in the Section “Serverlayout”:

InputDevice "ALPS Glidepoint" "CorePointer"

In my XFConfig file I’ve added this section:

Section "InputDevice"
  Driver        "synaptics"
  Identifier    "ALPS Glidepoint"
  Option        "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
  Option        "Protocol"              "auto-dev"
  Option        "LeftEdge"              "120"
  Option        "RightEdge"             "830"
  Option        "TopEdge"               "120"
  Option        "BottomEdge"            "650"
  Option        "FingerLow"             "14"
  Option        "FingerHigh"            "15"

  Option        "MaxTapMove"            "110"
  Option        "EmulateMidButtonTime"  "75"
  Option        "VertScrollDelta"       "20"
  Option        "HorizScrollDelta"      "20"
  Option        "MinSpeed"              "0.3"
  Option        "MaxSpeed"              "0.75"
  Option        "AccelFactor"           "0.015"
  Option        "EdgeMotionMinSpeed"    "200"
  Option        "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed"    "200"
  Option        "UpDownScrolling"       "1"
  Option        "LeftRightScrolling"    "1"
  Option        "CircularScrolling"     "1"
  Option        "CircScrollDelta"       "0.1"
  Option        "CircScrollTrigger"     "2"
EndSection

When I’m happy with the rest of my X-Config, I’ll post the complete XF86config file.

Intel ProWireless 2200 802.11b/g Mini PCI Wireless LAN Card

28 februari 2005 Reacties uit

Works fine!
I’ve apt-get installed ipw2200-source, but you can also download the driver on the web (http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/). I’m planning to insert the source in my kernel tree, but for now I manualy make & make install from the /usr/src/module/ipw2200/drivers dir (this is the path for the Debian package).
For WEP I’ve set CRYPTO_CRC32C=y and CONFIG_CRYPTO_ARC4=y in kernel-config
I’ve installed the wlan-tools and added these lines in my /etc/network/interfaces:

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
# these ar good for me, you will probably need other params
# see man wireless
wireless-essid PutYourEssidHere
wireless-key s:abcdefghijkln # not giving you my real key ;)

address 192.168.1.200
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.2
 

Update: The IPW2000 driver is currently in the 2.6.15 tree (and maybe before this version), so there is no need to download the source. I did have some problems compiling my own 2.6.15 kernel on my Ubuntu destro, because the firmware in /lib/hotplug/firmware was the 2.3 version, and the driver from the 2.6.15 tree needs the 2.4 firmware.

Kernel 2.6.10

27 februari 2005 Reacties uit

I used the standard 2.6.10 kernel from kernel.org. You can find my .config here.

I’ve installed some patches:

Bootsplash patch (just a toy, not essential) from http://www.bootsplash.de/

ALPS Glidepoint patch (alps.patch) available in the synaptics driver tar (http://freshmeat.net/projects/synaptics/)

Hard Disk

27 februari 2005 Reacties uit

I have the 80GB (4.200rpm) IDE Hard Drive.
This was a bit of a problem. I tried compiling my 2.6.10 kernel with SATA (Serial ATA) support, but al I got was kernel-panics. At first I thought it was becuase of my unsupported chipset, but than I realised that my SATA was /dev/sda and not /dev/hda!.
kernel-config settings:

CONFIG_SCSI_SATA=y CONFIG_SCSI_ATA_PIIX=y

# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 2720 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1359.53 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 82 MB in 3.11 seconds = 26.33 MB/sec
# hdparm /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 256 (on)
geometry = 9729/255/63, sectors = 156301488, start = 0
