4 days ago, I sent a mail about some issues I found installing the Mobile Edition on my EeePC 701. Some things I have progressed so far:

- we should package comgt (diagnostics about 3G connection) and usb_modeswitch (support for flip-flop modems) to improve our 3G support

==> Dirty packages of comgt and usb_modeswitch are live on conarydeba.rpath.org. The usb_modeswitch recipe contains a file from http://christiano.blog.br/2008/07/06/instalando-modem-zte-mf622-claro-3g-no-ubuntu/ that works only on ZTE MF622 modems.

- EeePC 701 doesn't have hardware LEDs for Caps Lock/Num Lock

==> Is there any package that provides this?

- Fn+F{1-7} doesn't work

==> Tried http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EeePc#FN_keys_and_events_.28fixed.29 and nothing happened. OTOH, on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EeePc#Fixes_and_solutions_to_common_problems only the shutdown fix worked.

And why eeepc_laptop.ko isn't loaded? :/ 

- Home key doesn't work

==> BTW, Home/Windows key never worked for me on Foresight :(

- g-p-m reports battery life unaccurately
