Wifi LED doesn't work [https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/189889 Bug# 189889]

External monitors flicker, especially when typing quickly. According to Thomas Winischhofer at www.winischhofer.net: 

My advice: Don't buy a machine with a SiS760 unless this machine has dedicated local video memory. And please don't complain about "driver bugs" if you see "flashing lines" on the screen; these are the typical effects of a bandwidth problem and unavoidable - even the Windows driver can't do better. In such cases, reduce the resolution and/or refresh rate and/or color depth, or use one output (CRT1 or CRT2) only. Sorry, can't help it. There is no driver bug involved.
