Hi Daniel, I solved the problem by doing this,, I have a acer aspire
3680.When I first uploaded the ubunto program I was unable to get
wireless.. It was solved by Sudo apt-get install
firmware-b43-installer..sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source..sudo
reboot.. problem solved.. After loading the ubunto  permantly I went thru
the same procedure and having no problem, thanks for replying...I do
however have a problem with an external monitor in being that it has a
vertically elongated picture and does not cover the width of the screen,
therefore distorting my photo.. Any suggestions would help, thank you,
cheers Derrick
