That "model=" issue took me about three days to figure out when I set up my
wife's new laptop (not an eee-pc) last Christmas.  There is a fairly
comprehensive list of valid model= entries somewhere on the Internet that I
found at that time, and by going through them one at a time I finally found one
that worked.

Not that it matters, but "model=toshiba" is the one that eventually worked.
Which is interesting because it's not a toshiba laptop.

The lesson here is, don't eliminate any entries as not relevant because your
machine isn't that model.
