I am still fighting with this. Based on comments in a bug thread, I decided to try the latest kernel. It did not help, but just for reference, here's what I did:

Installed the kernel from the...

I thought I had tried the other thing that you mentioned. Just in case, I did it again. It didn't make a difference.

I just bought my wife a brand new ASUS TP500LA-AB52T laptop for work. I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on it. The wireless didn't work initially, but I have that working. Now, I am fighting with the...

Try unsetting a couple of variables:


unset GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID

I just added that to the top of the launcher script:

I had the exact same problem with my laptop. I ran across Husain's Chronicle where he mentioned that everyone who used UNetbootIn to build USB key installation media had this problem. It seemed...

I think I need this driver to get my touchpad working, but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know of a new location to get that driver?

The Docs PDF View works good enough -- it is better than nothing. When I was using Chrome, it seemed to open the PDFs natively.

I had two computers, both with Ubuntu 11.04, that did the same thing. I tried installing cdrdao on one of them, but it didn't seem to make a difference. I checked the mount command, and I didn't...

I have since blown this installation and decided to Ubuntu instead of Xubuntu. I tried both Ubuntu 10.04 and Ubuntu 10.10 beta with no luck. I opened another thread since I am now on Ubuntu:...

I have been messing with this computer for a while and I can't get Ubuntu to boot. I previously had freeBSD on it with no problems. Before that I think it was gOS that it was running with no...

I found a post that made me wonder if it was the hardware switch that disables the wireless.

I just now got it working by:

I just started having the same problem. My wireless would not work -- disabled and I couldn't enable it. I thought it was a kernel update or something that broke it.

I am in the same boat. My wireless has been working fine for a long time, but just the past couple of nights it quit working. It is disabled and the option to enable wireless is grayed out. I...

dvo, Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It works now! I was able to not only load Java applets, but WebEx now works for me. I am one happy camper.

Thanks dvo. This is exactly what I needed! But, I am still missing something. It is still not recognizing the Java plugin.
