Everything you need to know about Amilo and Lifebook laptops by Fujitsu
new progress in the AMILO Ubuntu(Linux) adventure. Now WLAN is working .
I've used the 32bit Ubuntu version 7.10-386 . Simply install with Synaptic
the following programs: ndiswrapper-common, ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 und ndisgtk.
Under Windows Vista system drive in the DRIVERS folder you can find the sis163u.inf file.
Start the ndisgtk program with root account: gksu ndisgtk and then select the sis163u.inf file.
Then you can configure the wireless connection with the Configure Network button. That's it.
I believe there are only 32bit versions of wlan drivers available and working and that was
the problem with the 64bit version of Ubuntu.
Enter:
- Code: Select all
options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dig
in the file: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
Then I renewed the ALSA Driver, Libs and Utils freed the Backport source and now works both LINE OUT and SPEAKERS

Don't yet know which steps may be skipped, but this should work;
- get Linux kernel version: 2.6.24-rc3
- some of the probably important settings in .config:
- Code: Select all
CONFIG_FUJITSU_LAPTOP=m
CONFIG_IDE=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=m
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK is not set
CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEACPI=y
CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEPCI=y
# CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_AMD74XX=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA=y
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_DMA=y
CONFIG_SCSI_TGT=m
CONFIG_SCSI_NETLINK=y
CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y
CONFIG_ATA=y
# CONFIG_ATA_NONSTANDARD is not set
CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y
CONFIG_SATA_AHCI=y
CONFIG_SATA_NV=y
CONFIG_PATA_ACPI=m
# CONFIG_PATA_AMD is not set
CONFIG_ATA_GENERIC=m
CONFIG_MD=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DM=m
CONFIG_I2C_NFORCE2=m
CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK=y
CONFIG_SND_HDA_GENERIC=y
CONFIG_SOUND_PRIME=m
CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m
CONFIG_HID_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_HID=m
- compile, etc.
- At first I thought I had to boot with kernel option hda=nodma, but now it works without this. Dunno which option did it.
- kernel 2.6.24-rc3 will give you sound too, though not from your speakers.
- Unfortunately display brightness control still does not work, despite the Fujitsu module.
