I reported some bugs on gentoo bugzilla. Will still write a page/blog/wiki about the whole thing but if someone is looking for info now .. there it goes:

linux kernel 2.6.27(rc7) smp function changes + patches for ati-drivers
ati-drivers-8.532 - catalyst 8.9 crash

Finally got the touchscreen and Stylus to work (duno about eraser part but that's not that important to me )
I had to install linux-2.6.27-rc7 for this to work. for some reason this gives me a total of 11 /dev/input/event* devices instead of the total of 5 before but whatever it works.
One other reason why I tried the kernel was cuz I wanted to use both cores of my CPU (2.6.26-gentoo-r7 didn't detect the 2nd core - I checked out the kernel source and it had to do with some bios(?) cpu map ... ) and to have ACPI working as well

Got a new laptop ;) a HP Pavilion tx2550eg touchscreen laptop / tablet pc.

Progress so far:
ACPI does not work
ati-drivers (closed source) working with xorg-server <=1.5.0 only (1.5.0 is xorg 7.4 which is not supported yet) currently running xorg-server 1.4.2
sound is intel hda which only works so far with model=acer (auto does give mixer, but no sound) unfortunately it does not disable speakers when plugging in a headset (chipset is ALC268)
onboard lan RealTek 8169 (module r8169) working.

Was at Aninite 2008 this weekend. Was good fun - not the same as Animagic, but that's a completely different 'size' of convention
I'll post some photos and/or videos at some point soon (I hope )

Actually sold more stuff on ebay yeah
Apart from that there's hardly anything interesting to write apart from the fact that we r choosing some furniture,.. for our new flat (which isn't just ready to move in yet ^_^

Not really anything interesting to write here except that i'm selling some anime on ebay(.at) just search for username lordvan1701

Been really hot lately ... and unfortunately the air conditioning in the office can't cope with it either (even though it's a brand new building .. sucks ..)

Wrote a little review of the concert on Last FM here's a link.

Had a quite busy weekend and (something to blog I guess).
Friday was a surprise birthday celebration for a good friend's girlfriend in the Culture X Club. We 'only' stayed until 01:00 there though - even though it went on until like 03:00

Finally had time to fix my older PC again and can play WoW on it again so now my wife and me can play at the same time again - also means that I'm finally playing again after what was more-or-less a 3 month (or so) break.
Also took the ferrets out in the garden yesterday for nearly 1 hour that was quite fun. Maybe I'll post some pics later .. they've been really naked afterwards
