Hi all.. i succesfully installed Gentoo+kde 4 on asus eee pc 904hd... all seems to work (can't test wirless because i don't have a wireless router now) but still have problems with hotkeys...
I tried to use the new asus-laptop modules but when i try to modprobe it say:
Code:
FATAL: Error inserting asus_laptop (/lib/modules/2.6.25-gentoo-r9/kernel/drivers/misc/asus-laptop.ko): No such device

I haven't found a solution to this problem trough google... only someone that say to unload the asus_acpi module and modprobe the asus_laptop... also tried to blacklist the module (it wasn't compiled when i tried to use asus_laptop) but no luck...
So i tried to use the acpi_asus and acpi_listen work for all the hotkeys...
But i would to use the asus_laptop modules because i read somewhere that the asus_acpi it's going to be obsolete...

Another little problem it's that i can't use ctrl+alt+Fn combination to switch to tty console... i don't know if it's related to xorg or kde4... this is my xorg.conf:

I think "xhost +root" (issue the command as redirect) should do it.

The comand give me this:
Code:
redirect@eeepc ~ $ xhost +root
xhost:  bad hostname "root"


But, in anyway, how to have this commands work without interaction like issueing commands like that? Later i will try if gnome have the same problem...

sorry, it should have been "xhost +root@"

The ctrl-alt problem somehow matches with the line

Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"

but I don't know what the line does.
