Revision 3 for kernel 2.6.30-final released…
Jun 17th
Thanks to one of the guys who posted on my previous post, I got the info that seems there is a problem with the SD cards on Acer Aspire One and maybe even other system in case of a suspend/standby. It seems that in the new kernel MMC drivers are set to modules and also MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME it’s disabled, which also seems to kind of destroy the file system on SD cards after resume from suspend/standby. The fix can be found at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pm-utils/+bug/342096 and requires to modify the kernel configuration from:
CONFIG_MMC=y
CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK=m
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=m
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PCI=m
# CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME is not set
Revision 2 for kernel 2.6.30-final released…
Jun 15th
Don’t worry, this is not a new release and nothing really changed besides the acerhdf module. Yes, I have updated the acerhdf module to the latest version, which is 0.5.6 and I suppose its a bit improved. I didn’t have time to test it, but I’ll get around doing that too. Beside this, I also have changed the default values for FANON, FANOFF and INTERVAL and now they are set like this:
FANON=60
FANOFF=55
INTERVAL=5
A new kernel build: 2.6.30-final (Yes, again!)

Yep! You got it, this is the latest build for Ubuntu/Debian and its based on 2.6.30 stable from kernel.org. This new build includes all the good stuff from the older one, which means acerhdf module patch, coretemp patch for Intel Atom, also this should have a more proper and stable Intel i915 drivers, mode settings support and framebuffer support.
New kernel build release for Debian/Ubuntu: 2.6.30-flyleaf
Jun 9th
Well, as the before release this would be the same think, just it has some updates and also the base its a newer version of kernel. The base is 2.6.30-rc8, with git6 patch, Acer fan module patch, coretemp patch for the new Intel Atom (of course this new build has full Acer Aspire One support). Also I have re-included the webcam modules, as in the previous release I totally forgot about them.
