So I tried testing my luck with upgrading my distro again (Going to 9.04 worked fine), and now my Ubuntu boot is completely FUBAR :-?

Basically, when I boot up Ubuntu I see the new glowy ubuntu...

Yes I found a solution, Somebody suggested that I create a new file at

/etc/pm/config.d/madwifi

and add a single line,

Hey everybody,

I'm running Ubuntu on my college laptop (an IBM Thinkpad T43), and everything is working awesome, minus the fact that using the suspend feature kills my wireless until I reboot.

Hey everyone, I've been struggling with getting my computer to suspend or hibernate, and was hoping someone could maybe give me some advice. I'd really appreciate it :)

I don't know if that's related to my problem or not, but I've bookmarked those pages and I'll tinker around with my DNS settings... Tomorrow though, I'm going to sleep now :p

thanks!

Oh man, I was totally oblivious to 8.10 being released, guess I won't be getting that either... For a while.

I guess that would explain the slow speeds I'm getting, Thanks!

I've always used apt-get to get and install programs off of the repos, but recently (starting about two days ago), apt-get has been working VERY slow, as you can see:

Okay, I've removed powernowd and replaced it with cpufreqd, which gives me total control over my CPU speed limit via the terminal. The only problem is that I still can't exceed 3.0Ghz.

I found...

I found something else that look interesting,

Both BIOS and POST confirm the overclock, the cell settings menu in the BIOS shows my cpu speed as 3.37Ghz, and during POST, it says something like:

Hello!
