FILES ON THIS SITE :: What they are and what you need:

Please post comments regarding this software.  The demand 
for this software is declining as the systems that used the 
hardware are getting old and dieing off.  The only reason 
I am doing this now is because a) I still have an acer, 
and b) there appears to be some demand still.

If you have questions, the discussions area is the place to take them.

Also check out the Wiki.  I will post some information there 
that may be helpful.

a.  acerhkgui:  This was the first GUI I wrote for AcerHK.  
It is a bit dated and current package information.  
Updates are underway.

    X.X.X    To Be Released.  Working to incorporate 
             updates to support Ubuntu release 13.10 and 
             later (Linux Kernel 3.10 and later).  It 
             should also support previous kernel versions.
    
    0.7.2.3   Maintenance Release.  Updated to install.
              Source code installation for Linux Kernel 3.10 
              and later may work, but need feedback.
    
    0.7.2.1   Ubuntu 10.10 to ?13.04?.
    
    0.7.2     Ubuntu 09.10 - 10.04  
                (prior to 09.10, acerhk.ko was included.)
    
    Older:    May run, but doesn't include driver install scripts
              and may use an older GUI.
    
b.  acerhk_driver_install_script:  This folder is a script 
to install the driver.  The latest version includes source 
in archive.

    Updated version posted to support Linux Kernels 3.10+.

c.  acerhk_driver_fixed-compile:  This foldier contains an 
    edited version of the source that should compile either 
    with the script or, in the case of latest, from commandline 
    process.  PLEASE default to the acerhk_driver_install_script.
    
    If you want to ensure you have the latest souce, reference
    GruenerTee's ppa to download the source package in .deb.

    https://launchpad.net/~gruenertee/+archive/ubuntu/acerhk
    
d.  Cinnamon Desktop Applet:  If you use Cinnamon Desktop, 
you may be interested in this simple system tray icon.  It is 
just the applet, so you must also ensure you install the 
acerhk.ko kernel module. (see b. above)

e.  Ubuntu Application Indicator:  This is currenly being 
worked.  It will be similar to the Cinnamon Desktop Applet, 
but perhaps a little more capable, as I am more familiar 
with python than javascript.

AGAIN::: :)
