Thanks for your help mate, I followed the guide on editing grub and that has fixed the resolution for now. I am going to further look into setting up the drivers properly later as im hoping that will...

Sudo nvidia-xfconfig does not work for me. Probably because I'm not using the restricted drivers, this netbook has the Intel GMA950 graphics processor.

I just did a search and was not able to find the xorg.conf what his it been changed to?

G'day I just need some help to set the correct resolution on the 10.04 UNR. It is default to 1024X768 however the Netbook I am running (Acer Aspire one AO751h) runs native at 1366X768.

Now I have...

Just an update, I had to redownload the iso via bit torrent, the USB-Creator was still not recognising the iso however Unetbootin did and I was able to create a working USB that booted up.

It just...

Would the demand on the servers, lead to corrupted downloads? I have a thread going here where I am having trouble creating the USB for the Ubuntu Netbook remix.

I might try another thumb drive because it's a pretty slow one ive been using. Thanks for your help perhaps giving it a few days might be a good idea.

EDIT:
I have re made a bootable SD card this...

Yes it is an ISO I downloaded it from http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/
And downloaded the http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso file.

I was running USB-Creator in XP and...

I am having some problems installing 10.04 netbook remix off of a USB onto my Acer Aspire One netbook.

Firstly the USB-Creator.exe was not accepting the .iso as an image to create the bootable...

Why so late in the day? Sucks as I live in Australia. Will have to wait till later tonight.

Also have a look at Odamex I had a play with this over a year ago.

Thanks Burnsy ill test it out.

I cant connect the VPN at my uni either. When I try to add a VPN from the icon in the top right hand corner. The button to add a VPN from the VPN section is greyed out and I cannot click it.

I've just tried scalling the CPU's to power saver mode. No difference in battery life things are only marginally slower.

Heat does not seem to be a problem when im plugged into AC though. Only when running on battery.

Can I ask if anyone is having battery problems im only get about 2 hrs out of 9.04.

Have tried Powertop as well not sure if its made of a difference.

Yeah I would of expected better battery life I am sure there will some ways of tweaking it. This could be a big turn off for people that dont want to mess with the terminal.

Could potentionally...

Is there a guide or a way to improve the battery life surely there must be something out there.

Have done all of those things thanks. I would hazard a guess that it might not be slowing down the CPU.

G'day just installed 9.04 with the Wubi installer and just like 8.04 battery life is not great. I never bothered to try and get greater battery life with 8.04 and thus did not use it.

However this...

Ahh I wondered why I couldn't see anything eariler myself.

Hmm thats odd that should of let you set your drivers and then set your resolutions I guess something must of changed in Hardy.

When you went through and reconfigured the xserver with the above command did you select the resolution to be 1680X1050?

Try reconfiguring your xserver.


sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
