issue 1
(User issue: No idea how to install) commented on by jagonjohn
- I have never tested this on the default Xandros install that comes on the eeepc. You
would need to download and install qt4.4-dev, and the eee.ko kernel module to get
started. I do not have access to an eeepc with the default install so I do not know
if either of those are apt-get'able but you could compile eeeqtweak if you have all
of those installed by issuing the make command in the directory created after you
extract eeeqtweak-0.04.tar.gz . Also, I didn't mean to do it but I left a compiled
eeeqtweak in the directory I compressed with the source in it so you could
technically, possibly, maybe just run that seeing as Xandros is based off of debian
it could have the right librarys alread(?). I noticed on somebodies blog that this is
the way they used it, not compiling it but using the executable I left in there by
accident. It works, as long as you have eee.ko installed, otherwise it won't do a
thing besides display a bunch of nothing. One last note... This was written for the
7** line of eeepc's, I have never tested it on a 901 but somebody posted on their
blog they used it on a 901 to lower the fan speed(901's come with 900mhz from the
getgo but i guess if eee.ko works on a 901 for the fan control eeeqtweak could have a
little use). Get back to me if you have any other problems, I wrote this quick, im
working and didn't notice this till right now. I didn't mean for this software to be
used on any sort of mass scale and kind of just hosted it on google code so I
wouldn't lose it by accident....
Just to make it clear... to extract the archive and compile the program issue the
following commands in the directory you downloaded it to...
tar -xvzf eeeqtweak-0.04.tar.gz
cd eeeqtweak
make
./eeeqtweak (To run the program)
Note: You must be root to change any settings and also note that it is not a good
idea to run software as root so do a sudo if ya know what I mean(and I'm sure you
don't). Again, if you don't have eee.ko, version 2, installed then nothing good can
come of running this application.
Peace god.

(User issue: No idea how to install) reported by A.M.Bevill
- I'm a complete newb, so I have no idea how to use this file on my eeePC.
How do I install on a machine running the default version of Linux (if
that's even possible)? Even a link to a how-to would help.
Thanks!
