I installed 1.08 on a acer aspire 3000 for a friend. I have to make a network connection
and it works till I reboot. It is set to connect automatically. It does not show up in the
network icon down by volume. When open the VPN connection it is in there.
But does not start or even let me click on it to connect. Never had this problem bfore,
had install drivers before but not this.

1) Open a terminal and type in:
Code: sudo leafpad /etc/pm/sleep.d/20_custom-ehci_hcd
2) Paste the following code into the file, save then close it.
Code: #!/bin/sh
#inspired by http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9744970&postcount=19
#...and http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-working-bug
# tidied by tqzzaa :)
VERSION=1.1
DEV_LIST=/tmp/usb-dev-list
DRIVERS_DIR=/sys/bus/pci/drivers
DRIVERS="ehci xhci" # ehci_hcd, xhci_hcd
HEX="[[:xdigit:]]"
MAX_BIND_ATTEMPTS=2
BIND_WAIT=0.1
unbindDev() {
echo -n > $DEV_LIST 2>/dev/null
for driver in $DRIVERS; do
DDIR=$DRIVERS_DIR/${driver}_hcd
for dev in `ls $DDIR 2>/dev/null | egrep "^$HEX+:$HEX+:$HEX"`; do
echo -n "$dev" > $DDIR/unbind
echo "$driver $dev" >> $DEV_LIST
done
done
}
bindDev() {
if [ -s $DEV_LIST ]; then
while read driver dev; do
DDIR=$DRIVERS_DIR/${driver}_hcd
while [ $((MAX_BIND_ATTEMPTS)) -gt 0 ]; do
echo -n "$dev" > $DDIR/bind
if [ ! -L "$DDIR/$dev" ]; then
sleep $BIND_WAIT
else
break
fi
MAX_BIND_ATTEMPTS=$((MAX_BIND_ATTEMPTS-1))
done
done < $DEV_LIST
fi
rm $DEV_LIST 2>/dev/null
}
case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend) unbindDev;;
resume|thaw) bindDev;;
esac
3) Make the file executable, in the same terminal type in:
Code: sudo chmod 755 /etc/pm/sleep.d/20_custom-ehci_hcd
Source: http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix...orking-bug
Working on 1.0.6, need confirmation this will work on 1.0.8 please.

Hello...new to Linux and know almost nothing. I tried to install Netflix from the Help Manual and tried copying and pasting this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ehoover/compholio
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install netflix-desktop
My computer would only paste the first line then asked for my password. Don't I need both lines together? Or should I go with the first line-enter, wait till all that is done, then paste or type the 2nd line??? I tried to manually type the two lines in and couldn't get it on two lines as shown in the manual. Sigh...I might need Help Manual for Dummies. :-\ Thanks for taking pity on me!

| Can't choose to install LL besides the existing OSs |

Hello, friends.
When I run the installation program after I booted LinuxLite via USB, I cannot choose then to install this OS besides the other two which are already installed. The only options shown me is to erase the Lubuntu OS and install LinuxLite, to erase all and install LL or to do "something else [setting partitions and so on]".
So why can't I install LL for Dual-Boot as I did already with Lubuntu?
Another issue: The keyboard is messed by dealing with LL started via USB. I use a netbook and it seems like, the numpad has assigned to regular buttons on the keyboard. So pushing "j k l" I get "1 2 3", pushing "u i o" I get "4 5 6" and so on.
I'd be glad if you could help me.
