I don't know how to fix it, but I do know that Ubuntu 6.06 is available. I saw a live DVD/CD attached to the latest issue of Linux Format at the book store just yesterday. It's possible that version would do better. I'm sure it's just as accessible on the Net. The magazine runs about $12, but I didn't see $12 worth of info in that issue. The magazine seemed to be aimed at newbies and desktop users. It seems to carry less practical and tech articles now than it did only a few months ago. I figured $12 was more than I wanted to pay for one disc, and a magazine I won't get anything out of.
