Public bug reported:
I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and Studio 9.10 after purchasing them from
www.pawinksi.co.za and the installation works well except that firefox
cannot be uninstalled and doesnt allow access to any website with a
password login. So gmail, wordpress, facebook, twitter etc all say
connecting but eventually time out. I have tried other browers in the
operating system and they dont work. I have asked the vendor and all he
says is do a media test. I put my old Kubuntu system on and everything
works magnificently. which leads me to believe it might be a problem
with 9.10. Not even Firefox.
Can anyone suggest a set of solutions I can try to resolve this. I have
accepted cookies, removed all cookies and still find myself stuck. Hence
I am back on Kubuntu because it wouldnt allow me to access this site. I
desperately want to install Ubuntu 9.10 and Studio 9.10 but it has been
very disappointing and frustrating at the moment.
Summary no browsers allow me to access any password websites using
Ubuntu 9.10. I think its a fault with the disks because my ISP settings
dont change when I re-install Kubuntu and I am able to access the
internet without any problems. I just feel I wasted money on two disks
which dont work.

Hamish
