# ASUS X555L

This article or section needs language, wiki syntax or style improvements.

Reason: This article looks like a ciphertext of Help:Style :P (Discuss in Talk:ASUS X555L#)

### Specs

- i5 4210U
- Nvidia 840M
- SATA III storage @5400RPM. Easy to swap with an SSD.
- 8GB DDR3 RAM (The first 4GB are soldered onto the motheboard).
- 15" 720p LED.
- Broadcom BCM43142 WLAN + Bluetooth module.

### Things that needed some tinkering to make work and are functional as of May, 2016.

- WLAN ―requires Broadcom Classic Firmware from the AUR to be installed and modprobed, as well as any other WLAN drivers to be blacklisted.
- [FN] F5 and F6 keys for internal display brightness ―special thanks to Erkexzcx who advised me of his page for the Asus N550JV. Edit /edit/default/grub so that the line

> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"

becomes

> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet acpi_osi= "

Yes, there is a blank space in "acpi_osi= ". Next, rebuild your grub:

> sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

and reboot.

### Things pending to fix

- FN + F8, swaps display output.
- FN + F10/F11/F12, volume controls.
- FN + arow keys, multimedia controls.
- Bluetooth support. I have no use for it lately, so it's not a priority.
