General Support / Random Guest Session
« on: September 11, 2012, 08:16:56 AM »
I've not been able to replicate this personally, but while browsing using Firefox, a Guest session login will pop up.  The only way out of it is to reboot.  Any ideas?  It is occurring to all of our AO-722's with version 1.053.

TIA!

Thanks! I appreciate the help.  We tested with a couple of D270's during the year in one grade.  The teacher loved them (she had a cart full of old iBook G4's).  We're excited to roll these 722's out to her class and are hopeful other teachers will be interested in them as well.  I've not figured out how to get Java working with Pearson's Successmaker 4.  Some have suggested Pearson will only allow Mac or Windows clients to run it.  If I could solve that issue there would be nothing stopping me from forklifting all old macs in favor of an ubermixed netbook!

Thanks again!

Now I can't boot past the ubuntu splash screen.

Re-installed again. Same result on first boot up, machine locked while attempting to connect. Hard restart, to terminal and sudo dpkg --purge bcmwl-kernel-source, result was no such package (bcmwl-kernel-source) installed, reboot and attempt connect again.  No wireless networks show up under network icon at top right, so manually add the network, upon attempting to close the Network Connections dialog box it locks up again.

Note: I've installed 3 different times using Option 1, and one time using Option 3 of the installation menu.

Thanks RJ

Same result, but did require two reboots to bring it back up and one user/password login.

Pressing ctrl-alt-f1 does not get to a terminal.  Appears to be locked up with no use of keyboard or mouse.  Wireless icon in top right stops during scan animation on the second bar.

Thanks!

Have a new shipment of 24 Acer AO722's.  Fresh install of ubermix 1.052 installed on build unit.  When attempting to connect to our wireless network with WPAPSK encryption the computer locks up and must be hard restarted.  Wired Ethernet is fine.  I've not yet applied the AMD video patch.  Can someone steer me to next steps?

Thanks!

RJ
