Yes, you're right, shanenin:-) The alternate version of Ubuntu is very good at identifying hardware. Agreed. Stick with the 32 bit version of Ubuntu. If the Alternate version of Ubuntu fails to boot then move on to either Mandriva or Suse. http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/linux/ub.../releases/6.10/

Okay. Then you've determined that there's nothing wrong with your Ubuntu installation media. Your computer won't support Ubuntu. You could also try Mandriva One which is another live CD. See if your computer will boot that distro, if your hardware checks out you should be good to go and you can install Mandriva. Another user friendly distro is Open Suse. Mandriva One

Agreed. Eye candy at the expense of functionality is stupid.

Sounds good, Honda Boy! Agreed. It can be very unpleasant to work with people you despise. Best of luck in your quest for a new job!

Further to isteve's and shanenin's excellent advice you can also try the alternate iso for Ubuntu. Once in awhile I'll go to try and install Ubuntu and encounter hardware issues. If the text mode install doesn't work as shanenin suggested try and download the alternate iso for Ubuntu 6.10 (current release) or the alternate iso for Ubuntu 7.04 beta. The alternate iso is more forgiving of different hardware configurations. Good luck!

Agreed. It seems we work harder every year and get less money showing up in our pocket. Now, I just need to win the lottery, lol.

Wonky Mouse/keyboard Issue In Latest Firefox

Yeah, you're right, t0c. I wrote the wrong term, I should have said scrolling not lagging. Sometimes when a page has loaded it gets stuck for a bit and I can't scroll up or down. It corrects itself after a few moments. Weird. -
