ACPI
There are a few bugs in this laptop's ACPI implementation which causes Ethernet and Wireless not to work.
Graphics
If you get a “6 screens effect” when using the proprietary NVIDIA driver then do the following:
1. Edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, you could use nano to do this with:
sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
2. Add the following line in the Device section:
Option "ModeValidation" "NoTotalSizeCheck"
3. Save the file and reboot (in nano: press Ctrl-X and answer Y)
Summary
The Acer Aspire 5739 is a terrible machine to use with Linux and should be avoided.
