[quote=“Brian Huff, post: 8932, member: 2614”]Have you had any more luck in fixing the snowy screen with Acer 722s? I noticed your post in a search since I am having similar issues with our new model Acer netbooks, we have not had any issues with any other computer till this. I can build another FOG machine running 10.10 if that is the fix, but I’d like to find a way to fix my current running server.
Thanks,[/quote]
I was able to image the 722s after downgrading to 10.10
However, I still ran into the same snowy / garbled screen on some Dell Optiplex 760s. After further research I found it has something to do with video drivers and Linux Kernel.
I haven’t tried this because the Ubuntu 10.10 worked, but if you already have an established FOG server, you could spend a few minutes trying different kernels before setting up a new box.
You can try rolling back the kernel to a Kitchen Sink (KS) right in the FOG web GUI:
“Other Info” tab => Kernel Updates
Select and install an older Kernel (Labeled (KS))
Click on the button below the kernel you want to try.
It will download and install it for you, just hold tight for a few minutes.
Try and boot to FOG menu from the client.
Repeat with different kernel until it works.
