As per request, here is a new thread about some of the things I and others have done to squeeze the most functionality out of UNR 9.04 on the AAO. Standard disclaimer...your mileage may vary. 1. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne110L This site was a HUGE amount of help. I did almost everything. 2. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne Another, more generic resource. 3. Convert your ext3 drive to ext2. Better performance without journaling. viewtopic.php?f=5&t=164&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=10#p1177 4. my /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. /usr/local/sbin/jmb38x_d3e.sh &>/var/log/jmb38x_d3e.log & # Wireless disable/enable key /usr/bin/setkeycodes e055 159 /usr/bin/setkeycodes e056 158 # Decrease power usage of USB while idle [ -w /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-5/power/level ] && echo auto > /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-5/power/level [ -w /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-5/power/level ] && echo auto > /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-5/power/level # Disable Wake-On-LAN feature of Ethernet port ethtool -s eth0 wol d # As in the rc.last.ctrl of Linpus echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_smt_power_savings # Recreate Log directories (use only if you put the Logs in tmpfs in /etc/fstab for dir in apparmor apt cups dist-upgrade fsck gdm installer samba unattended-upgrades ; do if [ ! -e /var/log/$dir ] ; then mkdir /var/log/$dir fi done # Fan control /usr/local/bin/acerfand exit 0 4. /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'vol_id --uuid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed.

Thanks for your effort! Do these lines actually do something for you? My switch works on a hardware level, but Ubuntu doesn't give me any notification.
It's true that Ubuntu doesn't give any visual notification immediately but my kill switch works fine. After a few seconds, once Ubuntu has realised that the wifi connection has dropped it does pop up a notification in the top right hand side of the screen saying the connection was lost and vice versa when you turn it back on. That's good enough for me.
downloaded newest version,.....(nightly build)...they either made a booboo or there no longer on the beta phase or what...will install and let you know everything seems ok...havent had time to tinker too much but everything i want it to do it is doing
The directory '/var/log/news' should be created by your rc.local, too, Code: # Recreate Log directories (use only if you put the Logs in tmpfs in /etc/fstab for dir in apparmor apt cups dist-upgrade fsck gdm installer news samba unattended-upgrades ; do if [ ! -e /var/log/$dir ] ; then mkdir /var/log/$dir fi done Otherwise the logviewer complains...
