Install Debian on EeePC

Install Debian-Linux Release Technology-Debian on EeePC. The following is a detailed description. Some time ago, the 2999RMB EeePC launched by Asus went viral and brought a lot of money to Asus.

First, you can see the specific address of the img that launched an eeepc on the official website.

The first step is to download the debian-eeepc.img to your prepared U Disk

Dd if = debian-eeepc.img of =/dev/sdX

# X represents your USB drive letter

3. Press ESC to select a USB flash drive. The following installation is basically the same as the standard installation.

4. After the installation, the physical network card will be identified by the system. There is no problem. As a regular rule, we need to drive our hardware one by one.

5. Add the source in/etc/apt/sources. list (sigh, debian will be useless if there is no network)

Deb http://eeepc.debian.net/debian sid main contrib non-free
Deb-src http://eeepc.debian.net/debian sid main contrib non-free

I recommend using lenny. If you need Lenny, write it like this.
Deb http://eeepc.debian.net/debian lenny main contrib non-free
Deb-src http://eeepc.debian.net/debian lenny main contrib non-free

Use root login to install module-assistant. Let's drive wireless first.
Apt-get install module-assistant
Module-assistant prepare

Download wifi driver
Wget http://people.debian.org /~ Synrg/... 3.2-2 + eee_i386.deb
Dpkg-I madwifi-source_0.9.3.2-2 + eee_i386.deb

M-a build madwifi
Dpkg-I/usr/src/madwifi-modules-2.6.22-3-686_0.9.3.2 + eee + 2.6.22-6. lennypolici386.deb
Modprobe ath_pci

According to debian wiki, the m-a-I madwifi parameter cannot be used and the package version is inconsistent.

7. Install webcam camera driver
Module-assistant. a-I linux-uvc
Modprobe uvcvideo

This driver cannot be used on 2.6.24kernel.

Install luvcview
Apt-get install luvcview
As normal user you can now make use of your web cam tool
Luvcview-f yuv

8. Next we will install acpi and the shortcut key (fn + *)
Module-assistant auto-install eeepc-acpi
Modprobe eeepc_acpi
/Etc/init. d/acpid restart

Here we can see that eeepc-acpi-scripts mainly controls the shortcut key.
/Usr/share/doc/eeepc-acpi-scripts/README. Debian
