(Continued from my previous message this morning.) I will try using the Freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10 with all updates ( as of morning 21Jan10) installed as dual boot on the internal HD. After booting Ubuntu I had to go up to the toobar icon and drop down the menue for connecting to the wireless network. This seemed to work quickly and without errors.
Starting Firefox gave the usual default local home page: http://start.ubuntu.com/9.10/ I then tried to go to www.google.com by typing directly into the address bar. This generated a redirection to the Panera login Screen. Something that did not happen previously. Clicking the "login" button brought me to the second Panera page and onto WWW. I was then able to get to www.google.com. Before rebooting I tested Epiphany and Galeon web browsers. Epiphany went directly to WWW and Galeon poped up with a warning that "myportal is not a registered protocol". Clicking OK left Galeon with "myportal:" in the address bar. I typed in "www.google.com" and was able to do a google search. To test that an attempt at reaching the WWW is triggering redirection to the Panera login, I set the homepage in Firefox to www.google.com and restarted the computer. This time the wireless was automatically recognized and when I started Firefox the Panera login page came up. 'Went to 2nd Panera page and on to WWW. --- On Wed, 1/20/10, Vish <drkv...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Vish <drkv...@yahoo.com> Subject: [Bug 492349] Re: Connecting at public WiFi when using bootable pen drive To: arts...@yahoo.com Date: Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 12:00 PM @artsci2 : I'm marking bug incomplete for now.
