eee-control is an easy-to-use utility for controlling Eee PC hardware under Linux. It can toggle hardware (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) on and off, lets you configure all hardware hotkeys, enables aggressive powersaving, and more.
Now, when I am on AC-power, I use my EEE 1000H in performance mode and when I am mobile, I use it under powersave mode to prolong the battery life. Earlier, I used to get 3.5-4 hours in Linux and now, I am able to get 5 hours in Ubuntu Linux, which is pretty respectable for a netbook.The eee-control automatically starts when you log-in and resides in the taskbar so that you always have access to it when needed.]]> http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/how-to-control-cpu-speed-of-your-atom-powered-asus-eee-pc-in-ubuntu-linux/feed/ 5 Where is Super Hybrid Engine (SHE) in EEEbuntu?

Here are the steps to put it somewhere so that it is always accessible.
  • Right click on the Dock
  • Select Dock Preferences
  • Go to Applets
  • From the list, select CPU FREQUENCY Control
  • Click on the Activate button
  • Close
After adding it to the Dock, you can simply click on the the applet to change the CPU frequency. I recommend the onDemand profile which scales the CPU speed as per requirement]]> http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/where-is-super-hybrid-engine-she-in-eeebuntu-netbook/feed/ 0 Funny Super Hybrid Engine video [Netbook]http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/funny-super-hybrid-engine-video-netbook/ http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/funny-super-hybrid-engine-video-netbook/#comments Mon, 26 Jan 2009 19:13:17 +0000 Paul Merak http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=3036 http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/funny-super-hybrid-engine-video-netbook/feed/ 0 ASUS EEE 904HA – REVIEW (warning, biggg! review)http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/asus-eee-904ha-review-warning-biggg-review/ http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/asus-eee-904ha-review-warning-biggg-review/#comments Tue, 25 Nov 2008 11:38:50 +0000 Paul Merak http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=1428 http://gadgetmix.com/netbook/asus-eee-904ha-review-warning-biggg-review/feed/ 124
