Comment 32 for bug 1308348

To Jorge Candela and Hayden Skinner

Thank you very much for the feedback.

I didn't mention before (#25) to avoid lengthy posts but I can add the following:

I always upgrade by making a fresh install no matter the distro.

Some of the workarounds that I have tried:

- Tried to add nm-applet to startup
- Tried to modify a file (which I cannot recall now) change some settings that said NoShowIn KDE; LXDE by removing the LXDE
- sudo apt-get purge network-manager-gnome
- sudo apt-get clean
- sudo apt-get install wicd

- Try to run in live mode.

In all above I tried enable/disable the broadcom driver

All of these were useless.

I have to say that I did not follow the Jorge's method #29 yet, because the Ubuntu 14.04 is running well, although the netbook is almost "spiting blood". It is slow but working flawlessly.

Nevertheless I miss Lubuntu on this hardware and I think I will wait for a proper fix, since right now I have no time to do testing. But if I find some time I'll try it.
