Hi Ubuntu Community, this is my first post with this username. Had to make a new one; its been years since my last login and I have no idea what my old username is. Anyways, I am attempting to install Ubuntu 13.04 on my Acer Iconia Tab W500. I've seen some threads about getting Ubuntu to work on the W500, but they were all from a couple years ago and don't seem to be valid on 13.04. I decided to go with Ubuntu over the Win7 install because of my familiarity with Ubuntu, all of my servers run Ubuntu server, and I just got tired of using Win7.
Anyways, I have 13.04 already installed, but there are a few issues as I expected.
Touchscreen - It works, kinda. I can select things, but I can't click anything? All the windows/buttons/etc react like my "mouse pointer" aka finger is over it, but I just can't tap. Also there is no right click.
Auto-Rotate - I havn't read anything about anyone actually getting this to work.
Honestly everything else seems to be cooperating, but I'm sure I'll encounter more issues once I can really use this thing. I'm glad I got the keyboard dock with it. Thank you for your help and suggestions.
