If you like my ubuntu system images and appreciate the time I put into each one then please consider making a donation/buying me a beer via Paypal.
I'm an IT consultant paid by the hour so time spent on making these images and answering forum questions does add up!
Thanks, Mike (Disca on joggler.info forums)

Remaining issues before final release
- Minor speaker crackle when external audio jack is used
Current version V1.3 Changelog - NOTE: If you are running v1.2 and have no issues skip v1.3 as there are no major improvements
- Midori tweaks + homepage set (use this browser for full screen as you can click the world icon and select full screen to exit)
- Changed keyboard icon
- Fixed to stop hangs from v1.2 - had to regress a few items :-(
Old version V1.2 Changelog
- Screen brightness selector (looks like a sun icon near volume)
- Install midori to compliment chrome (use this for iplayer and other flash sites)
- Equaliser Installed by default
- Removed lock screen option in main menu (AndyA request)
- Installed window-picker (easier method of closing windows - cross at top) (Thanks to MaccleJ)
- Wired ethernet MAC address fix-up script (Thanks to Dysentry)
- Optimised background image and changed theme slightly (essential for netbook remix integration + slims down about 10MB)
- Removed additional packages
- VLC - change to only allow one instance. Doesn't minimise to systray now.
- VLC - increase buffer size to 2000ms (from 300) to eliminate a few stutters from slow upnp access.
- VLC - new shortcut so that mp3 files are enqueued rather than replace existing playlist
- Add arrows left and right to hide top menu buttons
- Remove "Other" from menu so there is no vertical scroll in netbook-launcher if people install it.

Old version V1.1 Changelog
- Minor X11 config file changes/tweaks
- Removed evtouch (didnt work anyway)
- Compiled and installed xinput_calibrator http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xinput_calibrator this can be run from start > system tools > Touch Screen Calibration . Please note that it is per session (I.e you would have to re-calibrate on reboot). If you want to make the changes persistant then start up a terminal ( Start > System Tools > Root Terminal) and using the virtual keyboard type in xinput_calibrator_x11. press enter and it should launch. On completion make note of the values listed on the line "Setting new calibration data: -38, 32900, -511, 32945". Edit the file /home/joggler/TouchscreenCalibration.sh , unhash the line starting xinput and replace the example values with the new values obtained above. Reboot.
- UDEV script to auto-link /dev/input/touchscreen referenced in x11 configs
- Script in /home/joggler/TouchscreenCalibration.sh for persistant storage of calibration data
- Compiled and installed djmount (UPNP to file system utility) - /media/upnp
- New /etc/network/if-up.d/djmount script (If you don't use UPNP then edit this file and hash out the djmount line - might save a tiny bit of ram/cpu)
- Onboard virtual keyboard now minimises to the top (near clock) - this fixes issues with full screen flash (thanks Master Chief)
- Onboard virtual keyboard is now UK and all keys match up
- Ephiphany browser replaced with google chrome
- Flash replaced with latest version
- Chrome scroll plugin installed
- All current system upgrades applied
- Screensaver timeout changed to 2 minutes
- Minor "slimming" of system files
