Work on supporting the 900 and other Atom-based models (1000, 1000H) has commenced. We have a source package for the atl1e ethernet driver at http://eeepc.debian.net/ and are working on producing debs of this and rebuilding the installer to include them so that an ethernet-based install on these models will be possible. [[TableOfContents]]

This page summarizes the status of support for models 901, 1000 and 1000H. Please do not use it as a bug tracking system. Instead, file bugs and apply model-specific usertags as described on ["DebianEeePC/Bugs/About"].

Please put no non-model specific information on this page. See [:DebianEeePC/HowTo/Configure] for configuration of webcam, multiple displays, etc.

== Wifi ==
A working rt2860-source deb is now available in ["DebianEeePC/Repository"]. This can be built and installed automatically with module-assistant, as follows:

{{{
m-a prepare
m-a a-i rt2860 }}}

See ["DebianEeePC/HowTo/Wifi"] for a guide to configuring wireless.

== Hotkeys ==
If you want to see a message on your screen when you use a hotkey run {{{apt-get install aosd-cat}}} to install the OSD display'er. you then need to edit /etc/default/eeepc-acpi-scripts and change the following lines {{{ENABLE_OSD='no'}}} to {{{ENABLE_OSD='yes'}}}

If you are not going to install the latest alsa driver to get the front mic working you can change
{{{
VOLUME_LABEL='LineOut'
VOLUME_LABEL='iSpeaker'}}}
to

{{{
VOLUME_LABEL='Master'
VOLUME_LABEL='Headphones'}}}
See the section below about what to do if you are installing the latest alsa

== Front Mic ==
Build and install the latest release candidate of alsa as described in ["DebianEeePC/HowTo/Sound"].

== Touchpad ==
See ["DebianEeePC/Model/900#Touchpad"].

== Bluetooth ==
Bluetooth works OK, but only if enabled from the BIOS. There is no way (yet) of enabling/disabling it - the eeepc acpi module needs some patching (see http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=304343). The bluetooth adapter is an USB device, much like the webcam.

== Power management ==
Install cpufrequtils to allow throttling (works like a charm with acpi_cpufreq).
