Hi there,

Thought I would document all the bits and pieces that I learned when trying to install Ubuntu on this Asus K52F-SX032V.

Please keep in mind I was trying to keep mythtv to version 0.21 for my own personal reasons, hence trying the older distributions first.

Hello to everyone! Hope someone could help me with my webcam problem, especially because i use Skype at work. I have Ubuntu 10.04 (64 bit) on my Asus k52f, and my cam is flipped using Skype.

I tried every kind of solution involving the command line "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype" .....i tried to change the path of the library (lib or lib32 or lib64), i tried to insert

Sometimes(most of them), I get a black screen after the booting. It's doing that since last monday after an update. I can get to the console/terminal but it doen't want to reboot...

Sometimes i get a screen with a lower resolution...

My computer it's ASUS k52F with an intel card.

Thanks

ASUS's 15.6in basic notebook has dropped another $100 and is now the first with a powerful Core i5 processor to go under $900 - a great deal if you can live with onboard graphics.

Hello everyone,

I am going to buy an asus tf700t soon :D

But i have an important question: i've heard from some people that the digitizer can crack when closing with dock like a laptop, is this true?

If so has it already been fixed yet by asus or is it preventable in some way?

Regards,

I stream a lot of videos mostly on youtube. And many times the audio just crashes and I can hear nothing but the video works properly. I have to restart Chromium everytime the audio crashes. This has started to annoy me. Any help would be appreciated.I'm using a Asus K52f

Hello all.

I have a big trouble with Ubuntu 12.04.2 and 12.10. After boot all works fine. But an uncertain time, my computer freezes. Only hard power off work. I tried different kernels - have the same problem. Memtest86+ says: no errors on RAM.

Maybe you, guys, have some idea how to fix it or why this happens? Maybe someone have same laptop.

I am running Ubuntu 11.10 x64 on a Toshiba M505-S4940 using a Realtek wifi card. After closing and reopening the laptop, wifi is disabled and will not turn back on until after a reboot.
