I also have an Intel machine, in my case the hotkeys would suddenly stop working. Did you testing the keys on LiveCD/LiveUSB as it says in the guide you posted?

[Bug 1028518] Re: Fn keys such as brightness and volume stopped working after update
This has happened to me several times but it might not be a problem with Ubuntu. I have a Thinkpad Edge 14 and I dual boot both Ubuntu and Windows 7. Whenever this happens the Fn keys stop working in both Windows and Ubuntu which indicates that it's a BIOS/hardware issue. I usually fix it by simply flashing the BIOS.

[Bug 44082] Re: GNOME Panel icons (on right side) move apparently randomly on session start in some situations
For all of you still suffering from this bug, I attached a script called save-panel which works around this bug. It reads the icon positions from gconf and generates a second script, restore-panel, which restores the icon locations to their saved positions. To use it... 1. Copy save-panel to your home folder. 2. Open the terminal. Run cd ~ 3. Make it executable using chmod +x ./save-panel 4. Run ./save-panel, this will generate the restore-panel script in the current directory. 5. To test the restore-script, move a few icons on your panel and then run ./restore-panel. The panel should restart with the icons in the right place. If the script worked correctly, it can then be added to the Ubuntu's Startup applications to fix icon reshuffling on startup... 1. System - Preferences - Startup Applications. 2. On the Startup Programs tab click Add 3. Enter Restore Panel for name. 4. Browse to your restore-script in your home folder for the command. 5. Press save. When Ubuntu starts up, the panel will be restarted and the icons locations will be restored. ** Attachment added: save/restore icon positions http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48520720/save-panel -- GNOME Panel icons (on right side) move apparently randomly on session start in some situations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44082 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 49348] Re: List view in Nautilus does not allow dragging a selection by mouse
For clarity here are the steps to reproduce it... 1. Open a folder in Nautilus using Icon View or Compact View 2. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor so that a selection box appears. Use the box to easily highlight multiple files. 3. Switch to List View and try step 2. 4. Be very annoyed as no selection box appears. To workaround this users have to... A. ...swith to Icon View or Compact View and perform step 2. B. ...remember the Ctrl hotkey. Hold down Ctrl and select the files one at a time. C. ...remember the Shift hotkey. While holding down the Shift, choose the 1st and last file. All files between (including the 1st and last) should be highlighted. I also think drag-select should be allowed in List View.
