Latest Fedora 8 kernel update supports some EeePC devices

Posted February 12, 2008 under eeepc

We’re getting there… for those of us running EeeDora - the latest official Fedora 8 kernel (kernel-2.6.23.15-137.fc8) now supports the Atheros L2 fast Ethernet (atl2) chip and includes an ASUS Eeepc ACPI hotkey driver. One less thing to patch and to worry about (the wireless and webcam still aren’t supported by default, though).

Thanks for visiting!

    Do you have patches relative to the latest Fedora kernel? Is there an easy way to keep up with their updates and still have all devices on the EeePC work?

    Not yet. It’s something that I’m looking at, though.
