There is a freezing issue that really makes Ubuntu useless on the 522. It seems to be related to the wireless trying to connect. I'm back on windows.... blah.
Please provide feedback if anyone has...

Try booting with the livecd (usb) and use disk manager to Format the partitions. For some reason ubuntu looks for a previous install and then f@(k$ up and freezes. In particular i found that the...

Okay, well thanks for the reply. However; it doesn't seem relevant. Your acer is a different model with a different CPU and GPU.
The 522 has an AMD C-50 ‘Ontario’ APU, which is a 1GHz dual core...

Still cant update 'event-based init daemon'.

Me too; both my desktop and netbook.
Also; netbook is now experiencing random freezes - related or coincidence?

Same problem as described as several others: after suspend I try to power back up but the screen remains unlit. The PC must have the power cycled to start back up.

I tried a fix from Maverick...

Marked as solved, but no solution. Awesome.

Alright then, thanks; I'll give it a shot.
