Lubuntu 14.10 Installed on Acer Aspire 3000 Screen Settings
Every thing I open [files, folders or sites] are overhanging the edges, try as I might the resolution stays at 640x 400 I would like to set up to 1024X768.
I set the setting to automatic but it keeps going back to default 640x400.
Thanks for your help
PS-other than the above problem it seems like a great program
Problem with D/L switched to Ubuntu 14.04.1 So far everything is ok with hard wired Lan but not able to go WiFi as front switch not showing on and doesn't function, I think the drivers are not compatible with the Acer Aspire 3000 card. Will keep on trying---Thanks for your advice, more would be appreciated

I have to second EDDY1's advice. Do you have the Broadcom driver (and any associated firmware) installed?
I D/L the drivers to the file folder, now all I need to know is how and where to put them on my Acer 3000 Laptop computer. I'm a real noobie could use a step by step for Ubuntu 14.04.1 feel lost as its not Windows 7---Thanks

Is it a .deb file? If so oprn with gdebi.
But ubuntu should have the driver.
Loaded Fedora 20 over Ubuntu now everything works including the WiFi. Very pleased with the Fedora 20 operating system and highly recommend it. Thanks to all!
