Failing to start LXDE (and X) on MSI Wind U100

I am trying to install Arch on a MSI WInd U100, but have troubles getting LXDE to run.
X can start by executing startx. But as soon as i copy the /etc/skel/.xinitrc file to ~/.xinitrc, it fails to start. Even without exec startlxde.
I have installed the xf86-video-intel driver.
Last two lines from log file:
(EE) intel(0): Failed to set backlight acpi_video0 for output LVDS1 to brightness level 0, disabling
(EE) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.

Recommended Kernel For The MSI Wind U100

Hi folks,
I am currently running the -ck kernel, the same as I have on my laptop, but I am currently thinking that a more specialised kernel may give me better performance on my MSI Wind U100 netbook. I reckon that the Aspire One kernel may fit the bill because of the similar hardware, but I wanted to hear about anyone's experience with this kernel (or any other) on the Wind. Recommendations welcome!
Cheers,
scott

To the nutshell: Seems we understand, great
Regarding the defaults:
Well most of the kernel options have a little help text associated that *may* give an idea what it's about... But I guess you rather look for a good place to start.
You could either use the config of your running kernel: look inside /proc/config.gz. Or you could start with the one that comes with the AUR. If you already run the -ck kernel now, you unknowingly used the config it provides and the above will be the same of course.
I still recommend kernel26-ice with enabled -bfs patch but I guess -ck will in the end use the same scheduler...? Whatever
So in -ck look for this section:
# get kernel version
make prepare
# load configuration
# Configure the kernel. Replace the line below with one of your choice.
#make menuconfig # CLI menu for configuration
#make xconfig # X-based configuration
#make oldconfig # using old config from previous kernel version
# ... or manually edit .config
# stop here
# this is useful to configure the kernel
#msg "Stopping build"
#return 1
Activate "load configuration" (hopefully that uses /proc/config.gz automatically) and either "menuconfig" or "xconfig" so you later get a menu/gui to edit that file.
The commented "stop here" part irritates me, though... I would think the msg and return 1 line should be uncommented as well but - not sure at the moment. Try it, you will see if it stops building while you see the config. It should do...
In -ice-kernel you'd look for
### User/Environment defined variables
bfs_scheduler=${bfs_scheduler:-0}
enable_fastboot=${enable_fastboot:-0}
keep_source_code=${keep_source_code:-0}
menuconfig=${menuconfig:-0}
realtime_patch=${realtime_patch:-0}
use_config_gz=${use_config_gz:-0}
enable_reiser4=${enable_reiser4:-0}
and replace "0" with "1" for bfs_scheduler, menuconfig and use_config_gz and maybe also enable_fastboot.
(optionally look for something like this:
# configure kernel
if [ "$menuconfig" = "1" ]; then
make menuconfig ## <-- this one
fi
yes "" | make config
and replace the "make menuconfig" with "make xconfig"or whatever. I prefer gconfig)
Save the PKGBUILD and run makepkg
After some downloading, extracting and patching you should finally SEE the menu/gui. Tada.
To make sure you can now load the config file you saved above but it *should* allready be done...
Now look at "General Setup->Local Version". The -ck kernel will most likely say -ck there, standard arch says -ARCH. It may be wise to give your kernel a uniqe name so you don't overwrite your working one... (Remember to add an entry for it in /boot/grub/menu.lst to be able to start it later.) You will need to take care of updates manually then, though.
And at last: "Processor-type and features" seems to be the most interesting region for you
(For the other options - well there are LOTS of them. Some will also influence performance.... So I guess best advice is take your time and only fiddle with options you understand.)
If you are done save the setting and exit the program. Now "the real work" should start. If you do it on the netbook - you will probably need SOME patience for that too!
When it's done install the kernel with pacman -U </patch/to/directory/where/I/just/build/the/kernel.tar.gz
If you changed menu.lst you can select YOUR kernel on next boot and try if it does what it should.
Good look
Oh and you may need to (re)install some modules for graphic cards, wifi or whatever for this kernel too...
[Edit: Me needs antiverbose-switch! just wanted to give a *short* answer:) ]

MSI WIND U100 - processor voltage at 0.9V

Hi,
I made a ''desktop'' PC out of my old wind and I'm having trouble with the BIOS overclocking. I'm trying to get the 24% overclock, but the system is always crashing. Max that I can get is 8% overclock. The problem might be the voltage. It runs at 0.9V (800 MHz) or 0.925V (1600 MHz). I've seen some cpu-z screenshots and most of the N270's are running at 1.275V. Can I somehow change the voltage? Or if someone has an N270 could you check YOUR voltage?
Thanks

you can't change the voltage for this unit
OCing is not guaranteed its based on luck and draws
some units can be OCed more than another, its individual
for the exact case i was able to play at 2 x U100 identical
one can OC to 8% max, other can be OCed to 24% fine
other factors is your RAM, when you apply OC,
memory is also OCed slightly along with the CPU,
which can prevent the higher OCing
do you use build in memory in the unit or
do you also have add-on memory stick installed and using them both?

MSI Wind U100 Plus, 24% Request

Hello Svet
excuse for my low English.
Can you change include value of DOC 8% <-> 24% ?
Because I use U100+. I can not choose 24% of DOC menu in BIOS.
Does the sum total of BIOS: it in the same?
Is it difficult?
Thank you

MSI Wind U100 won't boot or POST!

My CPU fan was getting noisy so i decided to take the back off and blow out the dust. Before i put it back together i decided to plug in the battery and turn it on with the back cover off to make sure i fixed the noisy fan. That's when it happened. The blue star lights up and that's it. Blank screen, no POST, nothing! Hmm, i thought maybe there was a case sensor or something so i pulled the battery, put the cover back on and still nothing. Oh yeah, the CPU Fan spins for 2 seconds, much quieter now.
I have also tried... removing the battery and power cord and let sit 10 minutes, power by cord with battery removed, removing little BIOS motherboard battery, removing HDD, re-seating all connectors from LCD screen, and the usual cursing.
Somebody please tell me how to fix this thing.

I have the exact same issue...only one blue light and power cycles when you try to stop it. System will not post.
New board, CPU, and RAM. video card from a working system.
Already tried reseating CPU and fan...already tried moving ram to second (black) slot.
Is this board DOA???

MSI Wind U100 question - Newby

Hi
I just purchased a new U100 with the Intel 270. The BIOS is the ENO11IMS Ver.10D. In the BIOS I can change the the overclocking to 8/15/24%. After booting XP I toggle F10, The turbo icon shows on screen. But I cannot tell if it is OCing. I downloaded CPUz but it shows Specification as 1.6Ghz and core speed as approximately 926mhz. The power on button changes from blue to orange, but other than that i have no idea if it is OCing.
Another question. The machine was getting really hot. I downloaded speedfan and the temps Temp1/Core 0/Core 1 were all in the 70's (Celsius) and I think Temp 1 broke 80 some. I engaged the auto fan speed in Speedfan and after a while the fan came on and the temps fell rapidly right before my eyes and settled in the 30's and the computer went from hot to luke warm. But it seems it took a 3rd party software to get the fan to work at all.
Can anyone give me some insight into these.
Thanks

Yes, you're overclocking. The CPU only runs at full speed when its under full load (to save power). Normally when idle, the CPU speed drops to 800mhz, so the fact that yours is idling at 926mhz means the OC is active. Put the CPU under heavy load, using something like SuperPi or Prime95, and you'll see the CPU speed will exceed 1600mhz.

MOVED: MSI Wind U115 screen resolution problems

This topic has been moved to MSI Notebook.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=131560.0

The speakers are built into the unit so I do not have a seperate speaker volume control. This is the Wind Top all in one unit.
The only way to control the volume is by using the external volume buttons. Some programs do not have a internal volume control so our clients are going to need to use those external buttons. This is a major setback considering we are a reseller and would be selling hundreds of units.
I don't think I have the SCM software installed.
Any other suggestions?
Why would MSI create a driver that when you adjust the volume it takes over the screen and causes programs to minimize? Seems a little crazy.

Everything flashed fine, it's just that the right windows key doesn't open IE (but does open hotmail) and the shift + Fn + lCtrl doesn't work either
they're not too much of a big deal, they're just cool additions, lol. Do you no how I could fix these?

You need to install SCM:
http://www.msi.com/product/nb/U100.html#/?div=Utility&os=All
also combination is: [real keys on keyboard, not modified]
LCtl + LShift + Fn [release], ==> LCtrl + Fn [release] and again[if you want a different one P.Led] ==> LCtl + LShift + Fn [release]

Follow up: It turns out the cables for the keyboard and mouse came out. I put them back and it works fine now. The piece that fell out was not related to the problem. I think it was part of the back cover that came off.

MOVED: wind u100 battery problem

This topic has been moved to MSI Notebook.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=132236.0

I'd think about erasing my ipod, putting it in disk mode, and copying the music files onto the ipod from the desktop computer. Then I'd use the ipod as an external harddrive and drag all the music files into itunes on your notebook. Erase your ipod again and sync it with the notebook and you should be set. This'll take less time than going through the ipod's music structure, so hopefully your battery can get it done. Otherwise, a new battery is not expensive (froogle.com) I found one for 11$ plus shipping and they're not hard to install before 5th generation.
