Jaunty Jackpole on 900HA THE REVENGE

2009 June 15

After installing Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackpole (Netbook Remix Version) and actually being excited that wireless worked out of the box I was very excited. That excitement lasted almost a whole 24 hours until I came home from work today and I ran a series of OS Updates.

After the updates, instead of enhancing the expirience, it degraded it. First of all my touchpad was unresponsive. It went wherever except the place I was trying to move to in the screen. Right click has moved to another location where I still haven’t discovered. My keyboard layout only works on US standard…no ñ, á,é, etc!

After an hour of googling for possible fixes for these and the sound issues, I have found no real solutions or workarounds. I got tired and I turned it off. I surfed Eeeuser.com for a while, but no real posts that gave me something to work with. I hope Ubuntu and Canonical reads this and other bloggers or Asus Eee users.

Any real ideas are welcome. Drop me a line or leave a comment.
