Same here. Spent days with struggling, and it was muted. Thanks locketine.

Long time, and nearly forgotten it, but recently I tried lspci and it works like charm.

In the meantime I installed Oneiric on the ASROCK - it may be the new kernel.

I installed a clean 11.10 and suspend works.

I have a persistent error message in Arista. When I try to convert an avi file with the DVD Player - Divx Home Theater preset, it starts searching for a "suitable plugin" then

I met the same problem, plus some others in moving windows on rotating cube. I think it is the same registered bug here.

Thanks OpenSage,
I tested it, but unfortunately it did not solve my very problem.
Anyway, by now I learned to live with it. :)

@nothingspecial: Thanks a lot.

Did you check if WLAN is enabled in the Bios menu?

Hi SuchetBargoti,
As I said, I have never had the time to dig too deep into video adapters (it is on my list, but is is just too long :) ). As the above thread says, nvidia-optimus is actually not a...

Hi all. Sorry for having burst into the thread this blunt, but with the limited time I have, that was all I could afford. But then, I really appreciate the huge work people like 3602 or Bodsda (list...

Well, it seems there is still something to do on your system.

Just to make it sure: bumblebee is not required for compiz, you can use desktop effects without it. Also, my machine with the intel...

SB You can remove bumblebee without problem if you don't like it. The reason I decided to quit was, that the fan boosted up, and turned my laptop to a hair-drier.

It seems the open nvidia project...

AFAIK Dell XPS 17 has a hybrid Nvidia Optimus graphics. I spent ages struggling with the proprietary Nvidia drivers on a similar machine, but Unity never started.

Then, after I messed my Ubuntu...

I attached log files.

Could anybody please check it out?

Well, I was a bit too hasty. Suspend stopped working after a few weeks. Now I am back to the same old problem: suspend is executed, but resume only starts after more than a minute. In this minute...

I found a detailed explanation here:

I found a solution here, and it worked.

No, no, this is not that. If I put this machine with Ubuntu 11.04 to standby with no application running at all, resume will still take the same minute. My Asus PC Eee with Ubuntu 10.10 does it it in...

Not if it is a switch on. But I am talking about resume from standby.

I had the feeling, that booting was faster, so I measured it:

I installed 11.04 on a clean Asus K53SV notebook. All works fine, but after suspend, the time to resume takes over 1 minute. In this time the screen is blank, not even cursor, or pointer. The hard...
