+This page is a work in progress.
+
+= Overview =
+
+Most of the features seem to be working with Linux 2.6.32.
+
+== Hardware ==
+
+* Ethernet: Attansic Technology Corp. Device 1063 (rev c0)
+* Wireless: Intel Corporation Wifi Link 100 Series
+* Bluetooth: 
+* Sound: Realtek ALC269
+* Video: nVidia GeForce GT 240M
+* Video RAM: 1GB DDR3
+* CPU: Core i7 720 QM (4 core, 2 threads per core)
+* RAM: 4 GB
+* HDD: 2*  320 GB, 5200 rpm.
+* Fingerprint Sensor.
+
+== Support ==
+
+* Ethernet: Yes.
+* Wireless: Yes.
+* Bluetooth: Yes.
+* Sound: Yes.
+* Video: Yes. (dual screen working fine)
+* Software Raid: Yes.
+* Keyboard: some Function (Fn) keys are not recognized / mapped correctly.
+* Fingerprint Sensor: Not tested. (listed by lshal)
+
+== Tests ==
+
+* Video:
+** Maximal Resolution: 1366x768
+** glxgears: 1859.8 FPS @ 1366x768
+
+= Configuration =
+
+You can see the configuration file specific to this computer at [https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/configurations/trunk/computer/asus/m60j/jx041v.nix <code>configurations/computer/asus/m60j/jx041v.nix</code>]
+
+= Problems & Solutions =
+
+== No Ethernet ==
+
+This problem appear if you are using an old kernel.
+
+<pre>[root@nixos:]# lspci -v | sed -n '/Ethernet/ { :loop p; n; s/^$//; T loop; q}'
+07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp. Device 1063 (rev c0)
+        ...
+        Kernel driver in use: atl1c
+        Kernel modules: atl1c
+</pre>
+
+While searching on the web you find that this ethernet device need the kernel module <code>atl1e</code> instead of <code>atl1c</code>.  The following sources explain how to unpack & compile & install such module on usual distributions.  As we are on a NixOS, things are a bit different.
+
+To follow the instruction you need to find a way to copy the module sources of AR81Family-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz ([http://www.backtrack.it/~emgent/hackstuff/Attansic/ http://www.backtrack.it/~emgent/hackstuff/Attansic/]) on the targeted device.
+
+<pre>
+# avoid messing up your term
+[root@nixos:]# initctl stop dhclient
+# add dependencies in the environment
+[root@nixos:]# nix-env -i gcc gnumake
+[root@nixos:]# ln -s /nix/store/*-linux-$(uname -r)/lib /lib
+# unpack & compile
+[root@nixos:]# mkdir /tmp/AR81Family-linux
+[root@nixos:]# cp .../AR81Family-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz .
+[root@nixos:]# yes y | tar xzf AR81Family-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz
+[root@nixos:]# cd src
+[root@nixos:]# make
+# Replace the current module
+[root@nixos:]# rmmod atl1c
+[root@nixos:]# modprobe /tmp/AR81Family-linux/src/atl1e.ko
+# start fetching an IP address.
+[root@nixos:]# initctl start dhclient
+</pre>
+
+At the end, you end up with a working interface and the following result:
+
+<pre>[root@nixos:]# lspci -v | sed -n '/Ethernet/ { :loop p; n; s/^$//; T loop; q}'
+07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp. Device 1063 (rev c0)
+        ...
+        Kernel driver in use: atheros_eth
+        Kernel modules: atl1c
+</pre>
+
+Many reference to AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.0.tar.gz can be found on the web, but the manufacturer links are broken.

+
+== Grub ==
+
+* Changing the boot sequence in the BIOS is changing the apparent mapping of hard-drives.  Thus <code>hd0</code> and <code>hd1</code> are inverted in GRUB 2.
+* The MBR is not restored by the recovery CDs.
