So its long time ago that I wrote something about Android-x86 and my Acer1825 but now I could tell, that I was not lazy in between.
I was working on builds based on the former work for froyo-x86 of arobase (we are still in contact, but he does not own the Acer1825 anymore).

I made huge progress on using my installed androidx86 on my Acer1825(build). Today I found out, how to install all google apps included synchronization of mail,contacts.. and all funny apps like google talk, maps, youtube and don`t forget the original google market!!! And I can say it works. I can’t believe, it works!

Most of you know that nice Androidx86 release from arobase for the Acer1825, but a lot of you asked for installation on hard-disk. I have done it and here comes, how it works:
First my start configuration: I had a installation of Windows7 (seldom used) (NTFS) and Ubuntu 10.10 on LVM(ext4), no free space for a new partition.

This guide is writte for my Acer 1825 but it should work on all linux devices which need a onscreen keyboard like onboard.
I got the idea of building this script from Tom/drnessie from the ubuntuforums.org (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1486671&page=17), because he tried to make a improvement of my onscreen keyboard show/hide script from this post.

In my last post I explained were you found a tutorial for installing a real multitouch driver for the ACER 1825 and said I don’t know how to use these multitouch support. Thanks to Tom/drnessie who recommended ginn to me.
Ginn is a daemon which recognizes multitouch gestures with the ubuntu utouch interface and translates them to global or application specific shortcuts.

In two old posts I described, how you could use the gyro sensor of the Acer 1825 for auto rotating your screen and how you could enable and disable this feature with a special button.

Hey,
thanks to Tom he mentioned a working howto for installing the touch driver on Ubuntu 10.10.

I tried this guide after doing
::CODECOLORER_BLOCK_28::and rebooting and touch works fine. I also tried the gesturetest application from the utouch framework

Arobase40, the guy who to much of the Ubuntu customisation for the Acer 1825, write a interesting comment on one of my acer 1825 post and I decided, that this information is too important to let it stay as one of n comments.
He wrote:
“If anyone interested for an Android Froyo alpha test file for the 1825PT(Z), and probably for the 1425P :
