Hello, everyone, its high time I had a laptop with gentoo on it... so far everything looked good with it, except for sensors not working, and now when I tried to set up ACPI on it, I just can't get it working  . I'm using kpowersave now, and no luck, just like with Klaptop. Ofc with kpowersave I finally can push stand by button, but it only starts up the screensaver and nothing else happens, same thing with suspend to ram, and suspend to disk complains about swap partition not available. I must admit that I never followed any tutorials thoroughly, though I think I did the most important stuff and it didn't work. I'm also dissapointed that not much data on this laptop model is available for any linux, and I couldn't find ANY regarding gentoo :/
So, can anyone help me ?
P.s. if you know how to start sensors on this laptop, I'd be really greatful too.
oh btw, my lspci:

There's a cheap trick, brute-force way to try and get sensors up: build every single driver in "Hardware Monitoring support" as a module, build the I2C stuff you need, then emerge lm_sensors and run sensors-detect. Then you hope one of them turns out to be the right driver.

| Did that, but no luck. it finds eeprom driver (which isn't really a sensor) loads the i801, i2c_dev, i2c_core, eeprom modules, but when I try to run sensors it spits out a msg, that no sensors can be found, try sensor-detect, bla, bla. I even tried loading every single sensor driver module, and still didn't help :S . Anyways, the ACPI problem would be a much bigger issue, but thx for the reply. |

Well, without knowing what the hardware monitoring chip is, there's not much you can do. Even if you can get that info, it looks like no current driver supports it, though it's possible it just hasn't made it into the kernel yet. As to the ACPI, you might be dealing with a buggy DSDT. If there's a BIOS update available, I'd try that, and if that doesn't help, then you'll probably want to try and patch the DSDT. I'm not one who follows laptops, but I'm assuming this one is pretty new to the market, so you're suffering early-adopter syndrome.
