Linux on Aspire One 722

Annoying software issues

• interaction of docky and sawfish
  • edge of maximise ~20% up screen from docky
• default cursor is not set right with sawfish
  • solved by linking .icons/default to preferred cursor set
• gnome-settings-daemon crashing
  • on resume from suspend
  • sometimes when switching back from terminal
• occasional gnome3 overriding of background
  • background when screen is locked
  • on login with sawfish (but not xfwm4))
• lots of wakes on hard drive by jbd2/sda2-8 preventing proper power management
  • when hdparm -B set low, frequent wakeups
