Kernel 4.17 update #4

Is there an update on how to install e200ha on arch with the 4.17 kernel? it seems you have figured it out here: https://github.com/Grippy98/Asus-E200HA-Linux-Post-Install-Script/issues/30 - trying to make it work myself seems impossible, as after the kernel is compiled it ends up being 20GB big, which obviously is too big for e200ha, even if I take the config from /proc/config.gz and activate the mentioned options for conexant and the other only, it still ends up being a 9 hour compile with 20GB result.

Update: I got the kernel compiled, it works, but the sound seems to be distorted, has a constant "buzz" sound and also not sure if in connection, but with that driver chrome youtube videos play normal at 0.5 speed and are sped up on "normal" speed setting, are you encountering the same or did I miss something that would fix this?

I have now figured out all the issues (see mention above), but would still be interested in the final piece. You mentioned:

The only issue I had to resolve was the keyboard at boot since I fully encrypt the drives, and the sd cards that are not being recognized all the time, otherwise the only remaining issue is the updates of the kernels. [...]

how did you get that to work? since that is still broken it seems.

You mind find some luck looking at what this guy did: https://github.com/heikomat/linux/tree/cx2072x/cx2072x_fixes_and_manual he created an easy-to-install script for the cx2072x audio driver for Debian based disto's. You could copy what he did on Arch or switch over to Debian.
