## Bluetooth

Install the package bluez, start `bluetooth` systemd service and use your preferred front-end to manage connections. See Bluetooth for more information.

## Fingerprint

You should find a fingerprint sensor with

    $ lsusb | grep AuthenTec
    Bus 001 Device 005: ID 08ff:2810 AuthenTec, Inc. AES2810

You'll need the fprintd package. See fprint for more information.

## Synaptics Touchpad

Install the package xf86-input-synaptics for enabling the touchpad.

## Wireless

You may find out which wireless network card you have with:

    $ lspci | grep Broadcom | grep -v Ethernet

It seems this laptop may have BCM5761 or BCM43228.

In both cases, you will need the proprietary driver broadcom-wl-dkms, or its non-DKMS version broadcom-wlAUR.

## Troubleshooting

### Issue with XKeyboardConfig

While starting the graphic interface, you might come across with the bug #77504 reported in freedesktop bugzilla. It seems to apply to both Xorg and Wayland. During the display server startup, the XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomb) reports:

    > Warning:          Compat map for group 2 redefined
    >                   Using new definition
    > Warning:          Compat map for group 3 redefined
    >                   Using new definition
    > Warning:          Compat map for group 4 redefined
    >                   Using new definition
    Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server

One solution is to comment out the following lines in the file `/usr/share/X11/xkb/compat/basic`. The double forward-slash is the comment symbol.

     //    group 2 = AltGr;
     //    group 3 = AltGr;
     //    group 4 = AltGr;

This solution of provided in the forum thread Xkeyboard/xkbcomp gives warnings.

### Disable PC Speaker

To disable it, ensure the module `pcspkr` is not loaded during bootup:

    /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf

    #Do not load the 'pcspkr' module on boot.

    blacklist pcspkr
