Hi,
I did try to build this module on 11.04 with module-assistant and it fails.
It's bad: when I type make : nothing happens!
So building in module-assistant stops at 0% .
It sucks: like others I cannot use my laptop after sleep, because wireless is
dead.
Worse than that: all other connected
I too have the same issue with acerhk not compling. I have tried module
assistant and it fails. I have tried manually building acerhk and that
fails.
I am getting really fed up with this now, I have a fujitsu laptop
(V3505) that is 5 years old and every time I upgrade a kernel or upgrade
ubuntu
Have you tried building module using module-assistant? It seems to me
that m-a uses different set of build rules and builds acerhk just fine.
However it's now necessary to change in acerhk.c:
#include linux/config.h
to
#include generated/autoconf.h

The patch Hendrik posted is for the upstream acerhk driver rather than
for ubuntu. Seems that this is a bug in the acerhk package rather than
a kernel bug, therefore closing the linux task.

Thanks Hendrik, your a life saver. :-)
Ive had this laptop (whitebook Aopen 1557) for quite some time, and it
has always been troublesome getting acerhk up and running..

It works for me!
Many thanks.
You may want to submit your patch upstream or at least as a debdiff for
Debian and Ubuntu. ;-)

Sorry for the late response ... If I recall correctly, I installed the
acerhk-source package, then changed the Makefile (see patch) inside the
archive /usr/src/acerhk.tar.bz2, and then did module-assistant build
acerhk. Does that work for you?

Indeed, the above patch worked for 2.6.32, but not 2.6.35. But I got it
working on 2.6.35 as well and created a new patch.

You might build like this:
cd /usr/src
tar -xvf acerhk.tar.bz2
cd modules/acerhk

Hendrik, can you please post the minimal commands sequence you used to
start the compilation? (I had some issues patching and compiling.)

OK, so this may be a high-priority issue for many notebook users.
According to [http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi/], acerhk is obsoleted
in favor of acer_acpi, and acer_acpi is now obsoleted in favor of
acer_wmi. The latter does not support a broad range of hardware, some of
which _were_
acer-wmi only supports those laptops which provide a WMI interface to
the relevant BIOS calls; if a laptop's BIOS does not provide that
interface, then I don't intend to support it in acer-wmi.
For those older laptops, the wistron_btns module may cover some of this
functionality (or perhaps it
These are rather bad news, because the present version of wistron_btns
does not make any visible change at my Acer Travelmate 243C. Thus the
problem still persists: it would be very nice if someone skilled fixes
(and maintains) the acerhk module to support current kernel versions.

@matez: Nicolas is right. I tried commenting out the KBUILD_CFLAGS-line,
but the compilation on the 2.6.37-2 kernel failed somewhere else. I
wrote a mail to the original author of acerhk to find out if anyone
maintained the package, but I got no reply yet.
Absence of acerhk probably accounts for
Sometimes it *is* that vital. Some computers, like Fujitsu-Siemens,
start with wireless off.
Without acerhk you simply can't use the laptop.
