Which of the PPA owners would I contact? I need instructions on what data to collect. No problem for me to do another ground-up, patching, etc. on the machine. A caveat that may or may not make a difference (probably not) ..... Due to a current shortage of hardware here at home to test on (unusual for me), I am testing Trusty with another Intel D2550 CedarView motherboard (same as the last one). Recall that Intel has abandoned Linux driver support for CedarView (Atom 2500/2550/2600/2700/2800) and GMA3600/3650 aka PowerVR SGX545. This probably has no bearing on the issue at hand and, in general, Xubuntu installation/reboot does a very good job of kernel module "approximation" (gma500_gfx instead of i915) and X video driver selection (modesetting). In fact, I'd advise anyone having a CedarView netbook, laptop, or motherboard to use the latest Xubuntu if their interest is to operate a Linux or Unix OS. But, it does make me think twice about reporting bugs with this rig.

The sound indicator did not show up on Panel 0 in the right-hand corner. The work-around ("INDICATOR_ALLOW_NO_WATCHERS=yes" in /etc/environment and reboot) had no effect. Be patient and wait for the migration to complete? The psensor showed up and is useful. Date/Time is still there. Different subject: Anyone have an idea why "Extras" is still MIA (404)? The work-around is easy (use Saucy Extras in place of Trusty Extras). Again, wait for future instructions? Richard </blockquote> Did the sound-indicator appear yet - assuming a reboot in the meantime. I've personally had no issues with it - I was using the previous instructions (saucy) and had it constantly. Lost it on the sudo make uninstalls - which was good - the one time I was expecting to lose it, then it reappeared after following the new instructions. You did I assume install it? As far as Extras goes - I rarely bother enabling it for at least the first few months. Though there's nothing in there I particularly need or want. Elfy </blockquote> </body> </html>
