All right guys - give a little, get a little:
My get: I have a emachines e725 running Debian Lenny. My problem is I can get sound if I plug in headphone into the jack, but the laptop speakers won't work, I get nothing. I'm new to linux but I'm ready to post any output request for some help.
My give:
Video: if you are stuck with a video resolution of 1024×768 with the intel GMS 450M, just go into /etc/x11/xorg.conf and edit the file so the device section looks like this:
Identifier “Configured Video Device” Driver “intel”
and that will at least give you a 1366×768 resolution @ 60.1 fps, which is better than nothing.
wireless: I wasn't able to get my wireless card to work (Broadcom Corp. BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) so I went to http://wiki.debian.org/wl and followed the instructions for Lenny and it go the problem fixed.
Now you give a little…

Depends, which driver your looking for.There are like all of the drivers as long as you identify what you want. Wireless,LAN,wan,camera,graphic,usb,printer & much more drivers. If you don't know where to download them will you know how to install them/compile them really. Go for a preconfigured kernel environment. try Mint for example[ubuntu version] or Mandriva.

hi i installed rhel4 on my emachine e725 but ethernet not working where i can find ethernet driver for emachines thanks roopesh
John Troon, Friday 12 of November, 2010 [11:14:33]
Any kernel that was compiled before a new hardware have a problems syncing with the devices: so find RHEL5 and above mostly 5.3 (which might not work with your screen brightness) I recommend 5.4 latest release. or just download the latest kernel and compile in your rhel4.
Watcom, Thursday 17 of December, 2009 [13:05:22]
Ethernet requires the “atl1c” driver, not “atl1e” as it appears. Works perfectly for me. The only problem is the inability of the kernel 2.6.31 to set the lcd brightness. I think this is being worked on. To read the current brightness:
cat /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness
The kernel accepts this:
echo 50 > /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness
And changes the value but the actual brightness does not change.
emerald, Friday 27 of November, 2009 [06:03:04]
I have had a couple problems. Centos 5.4
1:The Ethernet did not automatically install.
During the install the back light of the monitor turned off..
when I have my laptop connected to a projector on boot, it sends the signal to the projector, and I lose the signal on my laptop…
( I boot in run level 3 ) the initialization of run level three is automatically detected which is nice, but I am still looking into cloning.
2: I have not played a sound file, but alsamixer works. 3: I have not tested the web cam. 4: USB good 5: optical drive works ( i installed it from there :D )
I'm still looking into fixing everything to make it work. I do have un-installed updates to do, so I will get those done and post again.
emerald, Friday 27 of November, 2009 [06:13:14]
i also had to add
HorizSync 30-107 VertRefresh 48-120
to the xorg.. then my screen was fully lit.
the wireless works.. i can scan, but I cant connect to anything at my college because the admins don't assist you… and “you need to use IE.” from what i'm told.
but i will test wireless at home

Depends, which driver your looking for.There are like all of the drivers as long as you identify what you want.
Wireless,LAN,wan,camera,graphic,usb,printer & much more drivers.
If you don't know where to download them will you know how to install them/compile them really.
Go for a preconfigured kernel environment.
try Mint for example[ubuntu version]

in which plartform are you running your system in linux or windows????
if its windows and you havent formartted your machine yet use the emachine console to burn the drivers and the whole os backup.
if you running it under linux go to softpedia and download

Brightness on E725:
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
Add acpi_osi=Linux on the end of the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet splash” GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux”
sudo update-grub
It works (on my laptop).
Are your key combinations correct? (Fn+⇐ Fn+⇒)

Hey mates hello i have acer e725,i have one problem with my built in microphone, i dunno if it exactly exist or not,can somebody tell me is it true that microphone is integrated to dat laptop? cuz i've tried to check it in win and ubuntu (now im using ubuntu 9.10) and it looks like that isn't exists. Maybe i should contact my vendors? or maybe there are solutions for problem? thanks for advices!
This model does not come with a built-in microphone, you have to plug in an external one.

hi i installed rhel4 on my emachine e725 but ethernet not working where i can find ethernet driver for emachines
thanks

Any kernel that was compiled before a new hardware have a problems syncing with the devices:
so find RHEL5 and above mostly 5.3 (which might not work with your screen brightness)
I recommend 5.4 latest release. or just download the latest kernel and compile in your rhel4.
Ethernet requires the “atl1c” driver, not “atl1e” as it appears. Works perfectly for me. The only problem is the inability of the kernel 2.6.31 to set the lcd brightness. I think this is being worked on. To read the current brightness:
cat /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness
The kernel accepts this:
echo 50 > /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness
And changes the value but the actual brightness does not change.
I have had a couple problems. Centos 5.4
1:The Ethernet did not automatically install.
During the install the back light of the monitor turned off..
I had to actually edit the xorg.conf file and add
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/x-config.html
when I have my laptop connected to a projector on boot, it sends the signal to the projector, and I lose the signal on my laptop…
( I boot in run level 3 ) the initialization of run level three is automatically detected which is nice, but I am still looking into cloning.
2: I have not played a sound file, but alsamixer works.
3: I have not tested the web cam.
4: USB good
5: optical drive works ( i installed it from there :D )
I'm still looking into fixing everything to make it work. I do have un-installed updates to do, so I will get those done and post again.
i also had to add
HorizSync 30-107
VertRefresh 48-120
to the xorg.. then my screen was fully lit.
the wireless works.. i can scan, but I cant connect to anything at my college because the admins don't assist you… and “you need to use IE.” from what i'm told.
but i will test wireless at home

Installing Ubuntu 9.04 works well. After the installation I have found two problems:
1. Ethernet did not work. After upating across wireless internet connection ethernet worked.
2. Setting the brilliance does not work.
