7 The processor is an AMD Fusion [C-60][] (dual core, x86-64, 1 GHz;
10 You can monitor the processor temperature uring the [k10temp][] module
11 (`CONFIG_SENSORS_K10TEMP` option), which communicates with the
12 processor via the PCI bus:
16 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Device 1703
17 Kernel driver in use: k10temp
18 Kernel modules: k10temp
21 You can find read the processor temperature in degrees Celsius using
22 sysfs. On my system, I can use:
24 $ cat '/sys/module/k10temp/drivers/pci:k10temp/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input'
27 You can also get there directly through the PCI interface:
29 $ cat '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input'
35 Radeon [Evergreen][] IGP ([HD 6290][hd6290]) integrated into
36 the C-60 processor (`radeon` module, `CONFIG_DRM_RADEON` and
37 `CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS` options).
42 Builtin ATI soundcard and ATI Azalia. Both sound cards use [Intel's
45 00:01.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc Device 1314
46 Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 0598
47 Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
48 Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel
49 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40)
50 Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 0598
51 Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
52 Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel
54 In order to get these working with [ALSA][], I had to adjust the
55 default soundcard by adding `/etc/asound.conf`:
67 following [this FAQ][ALSA-26].
69 You may also want to enable the `dmix` plugin, to enable software
70 mixing of multiple streams (e.g. to play two songs at the same time).
71 I haven't bothered yet, but Pedro Venda discusses the setup
72 [here][dmix]. If you haven't enabled the plugin, you may get errors
75 $ ogg123 -q test.ogg &
77 === Could not load default driver and no driver specified in config file. Exiting.
82 The wired network card is an Atheros/Attansic [AR8152][] (`atl1c`
83 module, `CONFIG_ATL1C` option; Atheros [aquired Attansic][attansic] in
84 2007). The wireless network card is a Broadcom [BCM4313][]
85 (`brcmsmac` module, `CONFIG_BRCMSMAC` option).
87 The Broadcom drivers [require firmware][brcm-firm], which you can get
89 `git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git`.
90 You'll need to install `bcm43xx-0.fw` and `bcm43xx_hdr-0.fw` into
91 `/lib/firmware/brcm`. Despite the name similarity, this is not the
92 firmware installed by Gentoo's `net-wireless/b43-firmware` package
93 (which fills in `/lib/firmware/b43`.
95 There is also difficulty running both the `atl1c` and `brmcsmac`
96 drivers at the same time. Upon associating with a wireless access
97 point, the kernel (3.2.0-rc2) [hangs][net-mod-hang], forcing a
98 hard-reboot. To avoid this issue, it's wise to remove the `atl1c`
99 module before attempting to connect to a wireless access point. For
102 # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop
103 # /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 stop
105 # modprobe -r brcmsmac
107 # /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start
109 I'm not sure if re-loading the `brcmsmac` module accomplishes anything
110 here, but it can't hurt ;).
112 Another `brcmsmac` limitiation is that it [only supports managed and
113 monitor interfaces][brcmsmac-interfaces] (no master, ad-hoc, etc.).
118 The Suyin webcam is fairly standard, supporting the [USB video class][UVC]
119 for video4linux (`uvcvideo` module, `CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS` option).
124 I haven't tested the Realtek [RTS51xxx][] card reader yet, but it uses
125 the `ums_realtek` module (`USB_STORAGE_REALTEK` option).
