Some notes about the Debian on the HP Mini 2102
The other day I got the HP mini 2102 Netbook I won at the Release Cricital Bug Contests. Many thanks for it!
It works more or less out of the box with Debian Squeeze
,
including Suspend, Hibernate, external VGA Port. Batterie seems to hold
for about 7 hours, which is okay, too.
However, it wasn't shipped with Debian pre-installed, as I had been
told. After unpacking the Netbook right in the train
on may to work after picking it up in the morning, it was quite
disapointing to just see Windows 7 installing some software for over two
hours, before I could do anything with it! Booting the debian-installer
via usb worked, but I couldn't use the keyboard (which BTW doesn't have
Page Up/Down
, Pos1
and End
keys) in the syslinux boot
menu. But as the usb-images ship with a setup.exe wich adds the
installer to the Windows boot loader, that wasn't a major problem (it just
took me a while to find it).
The HP mini 2102 is a quite new Netbook, but to my suprise nearly
everyhting worked out of the Box. Some minor problems where the battery
display. With Kernel 2.6.32 it only showed the current state, but no
estimations how long it would hold. Installing Kernel 2.6.35 fixed
that. The Synaptics clickpad
(which is a touchpad without buttons
physically sepperated from the touching area) isn't fully supported. The
Kernel driver has already been updated (see #572842), however xorg synaptics
driver hasn't been updated to support it. Don't ask me, why there hasn't
been a bug report for that package; I asked for it in #597082 and put the packages
on my people
account. You just need to download and install the
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics deb and you should at least have two usable
mouse buttons. You can try some fine tunning as described in the Debian wiki, but
not everything seems to be supported (e.g. multitouch, emulated third mouse
button).
The last problem is quite interesting. While the build in wireless adapter works very well, it constantly looses the connection, when I connect it to my Palm Pre in his hotspot-mode. But I have no idea how to debug it, as it works very well with other wireless networks, while my regular notebook works without problems with the Palm Pre. So I don't know, why wpasupplicant constantly looses the connection and reconnects.
It someone has some hints about these two issues, an e-mail would be most welcome. Thanks!
Update: Oh, I got Pg-Up, Pg-Down, End and Pos1 keys via fn and the cursors keys! Yeah!
