Notes
- [1] on install need to add extra boot parameter for correct resolution: vga=771
[2] with ndiswrapper-tools and the windows driver from ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/notebook/aspire_3020_5020/driver/80211g.zip
Almost the same laptop https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AsusA6B00U with more detailed notes.
