Comment on How to install Ubuntu Linux on Acer ASPIRE 5736Z Notebook / Get around the black screen install CD issue by admin.
hi you need to put that on crontab. You should open crontab with command:
crontab -u root -e
then paste inside this commands and save, that al..
Tell me if you did it, if not I will try to explain better though I’m quite sure this should be enough as explanation.
Also take a look at crontab’s manual write in gnome-terminal:
man crontab.

Hi Sam,
I would recommend Linux Mint, as my experience with it for desktop was better than with Ubuntu / Kubuntu. Give it a try if you haven’t still. Drop a message on your experiences.
Best,

Type the following in your gnome-terminal:
sudo su
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 15; setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 2>&1 >/dev/null’ > workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 30; setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 2>&1 >/dev/null’ >> workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 45; setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 2>&1 >/dev/null’ >> workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 15; cp -rpf /etc/resolv.conf.auto /etc/resolv.conf’ >> workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 30; cp -rpf /etc/resolv.conf.auto /etc/resolv.conf’ >> workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
echo ‘* * * * * sleep 45; cp -rpf /etc/resolv.conf.auto /etc/resolv.conf’ >> workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
crontab -u root workaround_blankscreen_bug.txt
This is it now the crontab is set.
This should really work. Sorry for my veryyyy delayed reply 🙂

Install and configure rkhunter for improved security on a PCI DSS Linux / BSD servers with no access to Internet
–rwo, –report-warnings-only
This option causes only warning messages to be displayed. This can be useful when rkhunter is run via cron. Other options may
be used to force other items of information to be displayed.
–sk, –skip-keypress
When the –check command option is used, after certain sections of tests, the user will be prompted to press the return key
in order to continue. This option disables that feature, and rkhunter will run until all the tests have completed.
