System Info

system-manufacturer: COMPAL

bios-version: 1.08

Hardware details

Function and other keys

All keys work, except for one with a wireless card (I don't know what it's supposed to do, but it doesn't do anything) and its three touch sensitive keys (which I neither know what they are supposed to do).

Notes

* The screen goes black but the laptop remains powered on. After switching it of (pressing the power-off button for 10 seconds) and starting it again everything is restored like it was before.

** Sound failed after suspend, but this is fixed by creating a file called "/etc/modprobe.d/sound" containing this one line: "options snd-hda-intel model=acer".

*** Only if a card is inserted at boot time.
