Here is question/answer just to help the community. I just bought a new ASUS N750J . I had some issues installing kubuntu. Problems were the CPU FAN always running at full speed, battery not charging, not even detected... I had difficulties to find a solution over the Internet. I have found it after two days of searching. |

Everything was be related to ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) in my case. On my configuration ASUS N750J with kubuntu 13.x but I suspect on a lot of new laptop with some "smart" energy managers, the solution was to edit your GRUB entry and add the following parameter: GRUB is your boot screen, (default config, recovery config, etc). TO edit it, select the entry (or keep the default one) and press "e". I have found various "solutions" some hacks like "pluggin/unplugging your power source 8 times and things like that. Most don't work and some only provide a temporary relief. The problem is at a very low level, some acpi tables get corrupted while dealing with the hardware. Somehow this parameter fixed my problem. |
