It sure is, and Acer Aspire computers generally are cut down AMD Athelon
x64 clones. I proved this since I also have a real AMD K8 Athelon
computer vintage 1994 that is still running (how old does it have to get
before the Smithsonian Museum gets interested) and I have the distro
from http://talkingarch.tk/ installed on the K8 and the Aspire 5003. I
ran netctl's wifi-menu -o command to find local wifi connections with
both machines. The AMD K8 had no problems. The Acer Aspire returned an
error of no valid interface and this was with the same cable and wifi
adapter plugged into each machine.

I tried running it on an acer aspire 5003 notebook and it worked okay

I get a wifi extender I can plug ethernet into I'll try again it may
work then.

Hallo everybody
Is anybody Running Debian on Acer Aspire E5-571G?
Thankyou very much
That's a different Acer Aspire!! Debian is almost faultless on my Acer Aspire
One ZG5, but that is a bit old. I never try hibernate/suspend. If we are
just talking Aspires.
