Preparing your system
First you need to install the following packages
For Ubuntu Hrady users run the following command from terminal
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-hardy
For Ubuntu Intrepid users run the following command from terminal
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid
Now make sure you system is uptodate with the following command
sudo apt-get update
Configuring Module
You need to edit the /etc/modules file using the following command
sudo gedit /etc/modules
add the following line
acerhk
Save and Exit
Preparing Startup script
Create a new text file using the following command
touch /etc/rc2.d/S19wifiactivate
Now edit this file using the following command
sudo gedit /etc/rc2.d/S19wifiactivate
add the following line
echo on > /proc/driver/acerhk/wirelessled
Save and exit the file
Now make your new file executable using the following command
sudo chmod +x /etc/rc2.d/S19wifiactivate
That’s it Reboot your system.
When Ubuntu returns to service you should now have wireless working fine. No need to enable it using the keyboard shortcut.
To control the screen brightness, just add the Brightness applet to any panel. The keyboard shortcut keys don’t work.
