life

3 problems

1- does not recognize wireless (atheros-ar5007eg)

2- NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) 7000M not recognized

3- Acer Orbi-cam still not working ( no M560X driver available )

I should have problems 1 and 2 fixed tonight when I get home from work. But
they should not even exist.

Problem 3 has been around for quite some time ( this is my 2nd Acer ), some
progress has been made in the M560X drivers but it is very slow.
