Public bug reported:

Hi!

I'm opening this bug to relate several issues I'm experienced after installing 
Lucid (final release, fresh install) on my Asus EEEPC 1005HA. Most of them are 
already reported in other bugs, but I'd like to put them all together, as some 
of them might be related.
Before going on, just note that with 9.10 everything worked fine out-of-the-box.

Ok, here are my problems:

1. After install, wifi was automatically disabled in BIOS!!! No way to
enable it by software. When I figured out the problem, just entering the
BIOS and enabling it fixes the issue.

2. Most hotkeys didn't work out-of-the-box. People is having issues with
wifi hotkey (see bug #557048). I fixed that issue by adding
"acpi_osi=Linux" option in the grub. It is explained here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466802#2, and seems the same
problem related with bug #505452.

3. After that wifi and many other hotkeys worked, however I needed to
add another option ("acpi_backlight=vendor", also reported in the
previous bug) to make screen bright keys work. However, that seems to
affect fan behavior and computer gets very hot (is that really because
of that, or maybe just by chance?). I finally choose to install eee-
control (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-eee-control-in-
ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html), it makes most hotkeys work, but 9.10 worked
much better (out-of-the-box!). Thus, my configuration is
"acpi_osi=Linux" + "acpi_backlight=vendor" in grub, and eee-control
enabled.

4. As reported in bug #578289, wired network card do not work if last
time netbook was shutdown with wifi off.

5. Finally, i get an ugly error when attempting to connect to a WPA
enterprise wireless network. The same error is reported by many users in
bug #561125 and its many duplicates.

Is anybody else having problems with eeepc 1005HA in lucid? It is really
a pity to have so many bugs. In my laptop Lucid works really well out-
of-the-box and it is a wonderful release. I hope to get this bugs fixed
as soon as possible. Be free to request me any help, testing, ...
