Comment on How to install Ubuntu Linux on Acer ASPIRE 5736Z Notebook / Get around the black screen install CD issue by hip0.
This can be set setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 on cron to restart if the monitor gets dark again, it will restart in some seconds though …
for instance
echo ‘*/1 * * * * setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 >/dev/null 2>&1’ | 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 🙂

Hi Stan,
I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.
Best Regards

–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.
