    I would be more worried about the AAO temperatures instead of trying to save energy disabling the fan.

    My aspire one is getting hottier on OSX, and i live on a hot country (Mexico) :?

    Actually it sounds gr8 for me!
    Can you tell me what things you checked when u installed???

    For the sound try go to system preferences.

    Go to System Preferences >> Sound >> Output >> and make sure that "Internal Speaker" is chosen

    Found that on a site... Try it out :9

    Aparently it sounds like iPC is the best distro for AOA because of the working wifi and possible hibernation!

    jea, it looks like this is the best distro:D

    I checked rt1000 for regular network, ar5700eg for wlan, IO8022Family.kext and all the apps. Because it was only for testing, but now I regret that I didnt install the sound driver and some other stuff, because I cant get the sound to work.

    There is no sound hardware installed. But Ive tryed to install it manualy, but no go. Is there anyone who have the newest sound drivers??

    You didnt check the intel gma 950?

    As I recall this is all the options you have: http://pcwizcomputer.com/ipcosx86/?page_id=201
    And do people not use to check AppleSMBIOSEFI???

    I hope someone experienced in osx86 want to make a guide about what to check and what to not =/

    If anyone is still interested, here is the driver. I used pacifist to get it off of the iPC X-DL dmg. I have not had much luck with it after about five attempts, although I'm most likely just missing something. (I simply used the Kext Helper to install it on my iatkos install and ran a KisMAC scan from there after doing a permissions repair.) My computer does say that I have a card installed, it just can't find any networks.
