Arch on Netbook

Don't know much about netbooks or their Atom CPU but can I simply install a x64 ISO on this machine? The Atom CPU is 64bit however I recall hearing that you need an ISO which is optimized for netbooks like Ubuntu has a 'netbook' edition ISO. How does this work for Arch?

+1.
Boot time in Arch is waaaaay better than boot time in Ubuntu. That is even before opening a *DM.
My current boot time in Arch is about 6 seconds from grub to SLIM versus 30 from grub to GDM in Ubuntu. GDM is a hog, but even then, 6 seconds on a measly Celeron 900 is quite impressive.
BTW: I did like the NBR interface, but te be truly snappy and functional, I prefer LXDE.
Impresive indeed, in my HP mini 110 1020, I've achieved a minimun 24 secs from power-on to a logged-in Xserver running LXDE.
I trully recomend arch for netbooks, the rest is just to slow. If you like UNR, you can have the same desktop installing the propper software with much better performance on arch.

Please help me choose a netbook for running arch

I'm looking for a 10-12" netbook with a long battery life. Currently I'm considering Samsung N140, N150, N210 and NC10. I like the look of N150 but I don't know how well will it run Arch. I'm also considering MSI Wind u160, but the awful gloss of the body scares me off.
At first I was very sure I'll pick Benq u121, but the I found out that Intel GMA 500 has very poor support.
Could anyone share his experience with Arch on netbooks with nice battery life? I'm talking about battery life of 6+ hours.

To avoid multiple threads on the same subject, please continue here: Best Netbook?
Closing this one.

Arch frugal installation

My Arch-boxes (netbook Intel Atom and fixed system AMD64) has survived at both the stormy sea of mistakes made by me and both to the vagaries of the development lines of various desktop environments and software ... Now I would like to do some order; putting up a system cleaner and responsive to my needs. The guidelines would be:
- Adoption and optimization (mkinicpio etc.) since the beginning of the LTS kernel.
- Adoption and use of a single DE (Mate).
- Start on console mode and launch of DE exclusively on demand via "startx".
- Contain at minimal the packages from AUR or compiled "in situ".
- Adoption of ALSA without (if possible) interaction with Pulse.
Can I really do it without "side effects" of some importance?
Appreciated, of course, would be the help of those who have already embarked on similar projects!
Fraternal greetings to all Arch-user and thank you from now!
P.S. sorry for my english, but I am not english

Did you encounter any problems with running latest version of MATE? I did try to use it, but after logging in, I couldn't run Caja... Now I'm polishing KDE SC to look and behave more Gnome-like (I mean the good, old-fashioned Gnome 2.x).
Let us know about progress
Hi, krzychusss!
On my netbook (a Toshiba NB305) runs the latest Mate (1.6). There are small problems (the single-click does not work even if it is enabled, Caja does not show the option "Open as root" and / or "Open in Terminal" ... for example), but overall it works smoothly.
I think, however, that in order to properly evaluate the DE we should start from a fresh install of Arch. This is to prevent misleading '"interferences" with other DE or with spurious libraries or with residual files, and so on ...
Enable (if you want) the e-mail reception on your profile or send me your address using the icon under my nicname.
We could talk also in that way about "non-pro" issues (or boring for someone...).
see you soon

[SOLVED]Internet share from linux to windows 7

hi,
i want to share my internt connection from my arch linux netbook to my win7 pc
I succesfully followed this wiki article( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Internet_Share ) until: 'Assigning ip addresses to the client pc(s)'.
now i'm stuck with my linux netbook being fully configured, but i can't get my win7 pc to connect properly.
Idk maybe i need to configure the netbook in a different way in order to make it work with a windows client???
maybe
ip addr add 192.168.1.0 dev enp8s0
instead of
ip addr add 191.168.1.0/24 dev epn8s0
or an additional iptables command? (FORWARD ACCEPT maybe?)
Here's some data about my netbook in order to make it easier for you:
internet device: wlp2s0
internet device ip range: 192.168.2.x
lan(which conects my netbook to the win7 pc) device: enp8s0
thank you for your time.
regards b0b

you're on the right track, but the devil is in the details.
Basically you have TWO separate networks, but the internet share wiki page implicitly describes a 1 network setup.
the first network has the netbook lan & the windows lan device in it.
your second network has the netbook wireless and the router in it.
If you want to stick with 2 separate networks, you'll need to setup the netbook as a router, check the wiki router page.
Warning : setting up your netbook to function as a router will require you to understand/learn networking basics.
In both setups, the netbook wireless device will need to be setup with a STATIC ip-address.
Internet sharing setup :
make sure all devices are in the 192.168.2.0/24 network .
ex :
router 192.168.2.1
netbook wireless 192.168.2.2
netbook lan 192.168.2.3
windows 7 pc 192.168.2.4
Follow the internet sharing page in the wiki.
Once you have setup things , verify if you can ping 192.168.2.1 (router) from the windows pc.
if you prefer using 2 separate networks, check the wiki router page.
hi,
thank you for your post.
How do you know the wiki implies a 1 network setup?
the wiki says 'The first 3 bytes of this address cannot be exactly the same as those of another interface.'
I actually don't want to stick with 2 networks, since i don't want to waste 1gb of my hdd for the router software.

LiveUSB is being ignored, goes straight to GNU GRUB instead

After many attempts in installing Arch linux on my netbook I've decided to install a different distro. But now LiveUSB is not being recognized and it just goes straight to GNU GRUB. No other LiveUSB works except a LiveUSB of Archlinux. How do I go about restoring this?

Thats weird, if the usb is really bootable, it should boot. Try to disable your HDDs in bios (or leave only USB option in boot sequence), so it leaves bios no other option except to boot from USB. If this fails, then the USB dongle is indeed borken.
btw, I have fought my battle with installing arch to netbook yesterday, and was unable to do it from windows in the end. When the .IMG was raw-written on the stick in linux, everything worked flawlessly. You may try the Gparted live (basic debian with flux) way, which worked for me:

Arch Linux for Netbook ?

Hello guys,
im new user with Linux
is arch Linux compatible with Netbooks ?
because im using crunchbang Linux . i faced many incompatibility issues like Display/backlight/FN keys
and i hope this arch Linux can be compatible with my Samsung Netbook

Use google with the site option to search. (It works better than the forum search.)
When I tried, google turned up https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samsung_N150. It doesn't seem to cover your netbook specifically but perhaps there's something useful there.
Here's the category page for samsung: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Category:Samsung.

Tutorial: Installing Arch on a netbook when usb method fails

Hello !
I've been using Arch for sometime now, but it is the first time I post here
I recently bought an Acer Aspire One 751 netbook, and discovered that the installation method using the USB Key does not work on it due to a grub issue leading to error 17 (related to BIOS v3024 behavior on the netbook). In fact grub is not able to identify the drive it should load its file from and mixes the internal hard drive with the usb key.
For your information this netbook is sold with windows preinstalled, and it does not have a CD/DVD drive, so your best chance is a usb key.
The following procedure has been tested on windows, but may be transposed to linux as well using linux counterparts of the tools.
After a few trials, I found a workaround:
1- Download the Arch ISO image (not the usb image)
2- Download syslinux.exe from http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Download
3- If needed format your usb key using FAT32 filesystem (only one partition for the whole key is enough)
4- Run "syslinux.exe f:" where f: is the drive representing your usb key
5- Extract the content of the ISO to the root of your usb key (I used 7-zip)
6- copy the contents of "f:\boot\isolinux" to "f:\"
7- rename "isolinux.cfg" to "syslinux.cfg"
And that's it !
Basically you just have a live CD on your usb key.
The trick was to be able to replace the grub boot loader by a boot loader able to boot on this netbook to avoid grub error 17.
It seems a lot of other hardware are impacted by grub error 17, so I suspect this may help others
Enjoy !

Arch on HP 210 Netbook

okay, I've posted several threads in the past few weeks about my netbook, but have not yet to get my HP mini 210(-1170nr) to work with arch. So now i would like to plea with anyone who has an hp mini 210 to walk me though how you got wireless, clickpad, and the whole netbook working. Especially wireless since I get get that crap working after 4 arch install following the directions on the wiki, on random forum post, etc.
If anyone could help out from experience I would be in your debt, because I just can't stand not using arch on my netbook.

Arch Linux Installation on Netbook

Hi,
I have a netbook Toshiba Satelite T110 and I have been trying to install Arch on it for a week now but to no avail. So I have come to think that may be Arch Linux is not really for netbook as opposed to being for Workstation or Laptops. I really would like to have your opinion on that.
Kind Regards,
PS: I have Arch installed in a VM and it works perfectly.

i use the beginer's guide to set up my arch on my netbook. I chose beginer's guide because I am new to linux. Ubuntu works very well on it. I did try it and test it. I did not want to use to ubuntu because I have never lliked it really. I ran into two problems when installiing Arch. The first was network related. It could not probe my NIC and most of all, the NIC disappeared completely. I could see it while booted from a live cd but once Arch system was launched, it had gone off the grid. I had to reinstall ubuntu to get it working again. I have no idea what happened. lspci would not show it etc.. The second issue was with my trackpad on my netbook. Could not have the click at all. I could not resolve those two issues for the life of me so I stopped the install. I posted on couple of forums to try to get an answer but nothing really probing or that i could use. That is why I think it might not have all the hardware support a distro like ubuntu might have. But again, I know so little about linux that may be I am all wrong here.

Netbook Users: NBR vs Arch. Hit me.

(Skip my first paragraph/life story if you feel like it)
I started out with Ubuntu. Then I switched to Arch and absolutely loved it. A recent update sent me back to the dark ages of windows for a bit, but I have Ubuntu again and am debating if I should spend the time to get Arch back to its former glory. But right now I'm on vacation and without my desktop. My netbook (Eee 1000HE) has windows and Ubuntu NBR, but NBR doesn't set well with my eyes (I hate the way it looks) and I crave a "true" distribution. I've used arch on here before but some stuff happened (accidentally installed a virus in windows while trying to find a crack to play morrowind) and in order to reinstall windows I got rid of Arch.
I love Arch, but I'm curious if installing it is really worth the hassle, I'm sure it'll be better than NBR, but I'd like some opinions. I'm sold on repos since I recently got a Neo Freerunner for Christmas and would like NeoTool, and pacman / yaourt are awesome. I'm curious more along the lines of speed, space efficiency, etc....
And so I turn to you my beloved Arch community, what say ye?

Seriously.
I don't see why Arch would be the nec plus ultra on netbooks. You could easily install Ubuntu on it and replace Gnome with something lighter, throw out everything you don't need. Yes, it's the other way around.
Yes, you could. My posts were intended to suggest that, either way, it is a moot point. Without specifiying exactly what sort of set-up (thus providing the basis for legitimate -or fact based- comparison), this thread is just about opinion. I originally had Easy-Peasy on my EeePC and, while it is a good choice, ultimately I felt that it offered me less choice about how I could configure the machine.
You could run any distro on a netbook and be satisfied with it because it is so subjective. If the OP had asked for benchmarking stats etc, then this would have been a very different thread. As they did not, I advocated for Arch (semi-seriously) because it works for me and because I am well aware that whatever choice the OP makes, it is certainly not irrevocable. Hence, "Just do it."

Netbook eePC for Arch

Hi guys,
i was going to buy a super expensive laptop at12.1 screen only for the portability so i thought why shouldnt i choose a netbook with 10inch?
things i need and i like for it
working super well with arch
ssd 16gig
nice keyboard
10inch screen
good touchpad
Under 700$
from america :S
I am buying prolly in Christmass and i am starting to search for the right one for our beloved distro...
Should i suppose that with arch and openbox the system is going to run smooth and fast? Am i going to be able to use openoffice and surf the internet and download from the net small stuff?? Would a hard disk be a better option? Would you go with an aluminum macbook (without macosx) nor with a eePc... Money is an issue i wont to buy whatever i can do my school work effectively ( i have a desktop with arch and big space for home) but most of the day i am of the run! Need it to work in cafes and everywhere i am able to work with other people except my home!
SO the big question is WOULD I NEED to spend a lot of money on an super expensive laptop with12.1 screen to do my work? (i am coding only... not running anything like blender and other stuff) and starve to death because i wont have any money left then or a netbook will to my work more productively on the road?
Thanks in advance,
George

Now that it is a Lenovo product, I do not know that the keyboards are as great as the IBM Thinkpad keyboards. I've not used one myself, but that is what I heard. You will want to see whatever laptop you buy in person so you know whether there are certain things about it that you like or dislike.
e:On a similar note, has anybody installed Arch on an MSI Wind? I'm interested in one, but I don't want to get one if I can't use Arch on it.

Installing Arch on Atom Z3740D tablet/netbook

I am trying to install i686 Arch on a recently bought Atom Z3740D tablet modeled VOYO winpad A6. It's preinstalled with Windows 8.1. Atom Z3740D comes with integrated intel gen7 video card. Besides, it has 64GB emmc internal storage, 2GB DDR3L memory, a rare Realtek 8723BS sdio Wifi/FM/Bluetooth card. Here's my progression:
1. Disable secrue boot. STATUS:DONE. It can be easily disabled in BIOS. Press Esc while booting and disable it under Security->Secure Boot. It won't affect installed Windows system in anyway.
2. Boot Arch on a usb flash drive with UEFI . STATUS:DONE. It could be tricky that while the CPU support 64bit, its UEFI is 32bit only so it can't boot a 64bit kernel using EFIstub directly. 64bit Linux also has a difficult time accessing 32bit UEFI runtime. So I choose to install i686 Arch. I partitioned a usb flash drive to a 128M Fat32 partition and an ext4 partition with remaining space with GPT partition table. I put the kernel and initrd in the Fat32 partition and used UEFI shell to successfully boot into the system.
3. Input devices. STATUS:PARTIAL. The attached keyboard works out of box. Touchscreen, microphone, gravity sensors and camera not tested.
4. Network. STATUS:GARBAGE. As noted before, this tablet has a quite rare Realtek 8723BS sdio Wifi/FM/Bluetooth card. I can't find the driver anywhere and there's even little information about this card on google. If you know where to find the driver, please inform me! I am planning to purchase a usb wifi adapter.
5. Graphics. STATUS:GARBAGE. The kernel module i915 loads and KMS works, however when I tried to start X, X server segfaults. So far I can't test anything 3D related. I don't know how to debug X so I have to see to it later.
So this tablet is not yet Linux-friendly. Any help or advice is welcomed.
Off-topic:
I am quite content with the performance and performance-per-watt of Intel Atoms of this generation. This tablet can run even Dota2!(Of course in Windows. Hopes one day in Linux too)

I have an odys wintab (http://www.amazon.fr/Odys-Tablet-PC-Dis … B00N3VI8Y8) that is similar to the mentioned tablet. After some time, I have finally got a basic archlinux working.
Xorg OK with acceleration.
Wireless works with the driver mentioned by @dhead (ralink 8723bs) but suffer from stability problem and does not work with wpa supplicant (so no WPA, WEP seems to works with problems, unencrypted wifi seems more or less OK).
Backlight setting works
Audio does not work (seen by Windows as Intel SST Audio Device)
Touchscreen does not works.
Cameras do not work.
Micro Sd card reader does not work [Updated] (but I can read the internal emmc)
Buetooth and HDMI untested
What I have done.
To boot make a standalone 32bit EFI grub as mentioned in the wiki together with a simple config file such as:
set default=0
set timeout=3
menuentry Archlinux {
linux ${cmdpath}/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=c2a27b82-072b-4630-a94e-e16ea783a6e6 rw ipv6.disable=1
initrd ${cmdpath}/initramfs-linux.img
I have installed a basic archlinux from a fully working archlinux (on another computer) on a micro SSD card and transferred the microssd card.
We can load a 64 bit kernel (and thus install archlinux64) from the 32 bit efi grub. Then blacklist the i2c_hid module in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf (lots of problems with this module: the tablet automatically turns off after a few minutes, and xorg segfault) and ignore acpi events in /etc/systemd/logind.conf (optherwise the tablet automatically turn off after a few minutes, maybe this is ionly due to the i2c_hid module: see above).
[Update]: Given so many problems; I think that for now running linux in VirtualBox under Windows might be a better solution.

[SOLVED] Touchpad issues with Eee 900A, only with Arch.

Hi guys, posting here because I'm having a hard time tracking down this issue.
I recently aquired an Eee PC 900A, which I have running the 2-09 arch build no prob, but I'm having one massively annoying issue with the touchpad under X.
Whenever I lift my finger and replace it on the touchpad, at anything but super slow speed (and sometimes even then), the cursor will jump, an in or so back..
Now I thought this might be a hardware issue, so I've tried booting into different distros (after trying tons of configs for the synaptics driver in xorg.conf), and this dosen't occur in the Xandros distro that ships with the Eee, or in Eeebuntu..
I'm pretty certain it's not a config issue, Eeebuntu uses hal, I've tried using hal, and dozens of xorg.confs.. I've also tried the zen-eee kernel for the 1000/901's, which is older, and still has the same issue.
So I'm sure this is a software issue, but I'm not sure which.. It even happens if I dont have the xf86-input-synaptics driver installed.. I'm not going to post my xorg.conf here, because it's irrelevant.. I've tried using tons, including the one that ships with xandros..they all change aspects of the synaptics driver, but none affect this issue.
Anyone else having this issue? Fixes, suggestions?
Thanks.

hi guys,
I had a similar bug on my netbook with the Elantech touchpad. I have reported a bug to the maintainer of the Elantech driver and I get a patch that fix it.
description of my bug:
with two fingers above the touchpad, tap alterrnatively with each finger on the touchpad.
- expected behaviour: the cursor does not move.
- actual behaviour: the cursor jumps sometimes to the left or the right.
this only happens when configuring the touchpad with synaptics (by defaults, mine is detected as a mouse)
is your bug the same than mine ?
are you using both the proto=exps option and synaptics ? (I still have the bug in this configuration)
if it is the same bug, I have submited the patched kernel to AUR

EeePC- SDHC Issues only with Arch

To begin with I have a Eeepc 701 4G and a A-DATA 16GB SDHC Turbo Eee PC Edition card. Whenever I try to install Arch via a usb drive, I get a error on boot that says something along the lines of I/O error with my SDHC card which is listed as /dev/sdc1. Normally I would think this is a defective card or its going bad but Arch is the only distro that gives me this error. The error is just in the text that scrolls by but it also hangs when trying to partition the SDHC drive To test it out I have installed Mandriva 2008.1 Spring, Ubuntu 7.10/8.04/8.10, Ubuntu-eee, fluxflux-eee, and Forsight Mobile (I have been going crazy trying to find a distro I can live with/ even close to what Arch provides). Each one of them I set the / partition on the internal SSD and the /home partition on the SDHC card. Arch is the only one that gives a error with the SDHC card. I have ran extensive tests in Linux and also windows(sisoft sandra) but everything is fine with the card. The card is supported as it is a "Eee PC Edition Model" http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6820211300 I have noticed tha some distros have problem with installing via a usb drive and using /home on a SDHC drive(only Fluxflux-eee) but it is normally a /etc/fstab issue not the I/0.
Any ideals?
THanks
BTW: The card is only 2 weeks old.

Arch box appears to knock out wifi

I have encountered an interesting problem with my home network. My arch box has been out for a while and during that time I and all others in my apartment have had no issues with wireless connectivity. Recently however, I was able to get my desktop running again and now the standalone wireless router/dsl modem is dropping all of the wireless users. My arch desktop is connected via an ethernet cord and does not experience a loss of connection. But my iPod, netbook(running Windows 7) and my GF's netbook (running Mint) all lose their connection to the router and their ability to reconnect. The router is still broadcasting and appears on lists but no connection seems to be possible to it.
Before my arch box went down a few months back, this issue had been popping up but I had forgotten about it until I got it working again.
Fixing the matter so far has been either physically switching the router on and off or going into the router's software by browser and shutting the wireless radio on and off.
I have yet to figure out what might be causing this and I have found no instances of this in my googling. Any thoughts?

Make sure you Arch Box is not trying to become the definitive DHCP server on the network. In other words, ensure the dhcp server is not running.
Is your wireless set to the correct regulatory environment? (I cheated and used my moderator privilege -- I see where you are, so this is probably not the issue)
You have not "Optimized" your power output or anything, have you?
Edit: What is your router? I had similar issues, re-flashing my Netgear default crippleware firmware with DD-WRT made things work like magic.
