Hi, blind Pete. Thank you for taking your time to answer. Yes, I tried different kernels focusing con Ubuntu distro. I don't remember the exact kernel version, but at least those included by default in the Ubuntu 12.04 lts and 14.04 lts ISO image, which worked for me. The latest Ubuntu version I tested was the nightly 15.04 from the 7th of January. BREl 9/1/2015 4:46, blind Pete <0123peter@xxxxxxxxx> escribió: > > Hi dCrypt, > > I'm not a developer at all.
