KERNEL: linux-image-2.6.30.1-kuki-20090707.01

The following modules have been added:
USB_EZUSB
USB_SERIAL_MOTOROLA
USB_SERIAL_QUALCOMM
USB_SERIAL_SIERRA_WIRELESS
SDIO_UART
UIO_PDRV
UIO_PDRV_GENERIC
AUTOFS4_FS
FUSE_FS
PCIEHP
ACERHDF


Kernel should now support ntfs filesystems and others that require FUSE.

To enable fancontrol  open a terminal and type:
  sudo modprobe acerhdf
  sudo echo -n "kernel" > /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/mode

Card readers should work if booting with a card installed.  If not,
add "pciehp.pciehp_force=1" (without the quotes) to 
defoptions in /boot/grub/menu.lst 

Kernel is compiled with the "unsafe" options, so you should be able to suspend
with a card in the card reader.

If you have an aao 150, and are having wifi problems, you may need to  
  add blacklist acer_wmi to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
 
Hopefully, with the addition of the above modules, most 3G modems/dongles/tethers
should work (no guarantee as I don't have 3G to test with).
