Feel free to stress test it a bit more to confirm no more xorg freezes. >"By the way for us novices the documentation regarding BIOS updates is a lot of words that do not lend much clarity..." Seemed pretty clear to me when I read it. Quoting: "Asus provides within their BIOS a utility called Easy Flash. Please search the Asus website for instructions." However, if your point is that it is not click-for-click instructions, this is how when it was a direct URL to the instructions on Asus's website, they decided to change the URL so it was replaced with the above to be robust to random URL changes. Despite this, the Ubuntu help wiki is publicly editable. If you want more detail on it, feel free to add it as you encountered each screen as I don't have an Asus to confirm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1500411 Title: Xorg freeze Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: running browser against local server and data base.
