Happy to hear that- just a view remarks: - you have to rmmod the modules as described when you suspend, otherwise you will face trouble on resume because the module cannot handle the suspend-procedure correctly. the following only refers to familiar, I do not know angstroem at all (- if some readers have experiences and solutions with the following problems under angstroem pse let us know): I was always facing the problem that the current consumption was very high so I had to recharge the device nearly every day. After long investigations and the generous help of a friend who is a geek in kernel-compiling I found this two solutions: 1. With the original acx-Modules, the wlan stays switched on, even if you unload the modules- so the device can run only half the time even if you do not need wlan. To get rid of it, my friend changed the code of the acx-Modules so the radio powers down when they're unloaded. 2. With the original 2.6.15-hh1-Kernel, the unit discharged the battery when suspended. Cause for this was the navpoint (cursor-keys etc.): it must be switched into a kind of sleep-mode, but the original kernel did not provide this- so my friend again compiled a modified kernel without the navpoint-support at all and wrote a kernel-module which is (according to the acx) loaded und unloaded on resume and suspend. Only with this two steps I found the hx4700 usable under familiar-linux. Since I was testing this improvements the last few weeks I have not updated the wiki on familiar.org yet. So I hope for some feedback here to decide if it's worth the time at all to do this. Merry christmas to all of you! Michael
