1. On every start up from dual boot in XP SPk3 after problem started was
a repeat.
This may not be repeatable on another machine, one of the power
pull shut down may have resulted in a corrupted file or failed closure.
I did not find any disk maintenance programs to be able to verify
these thoughts..
2. History
Installed 9.10 from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download-wubi
OpenOffice and Firefox were my choice for XP. Spent week attempting
to learning Applications and System -- lots of help pages.
Everything seamed to be working correctly to me. Unix is new to
me. My 25 years at the key board include 4040/8080 machine,
various
basics, cpm, fortran, Dos, MSdos, Windows 3 to XP.
Update Manager updated Firefox
Then when Firefox was started a few minutes latter the Mouse keys
would lock out, pointer OK.
Firefox need the flashplayer plugin. Downloaded from Adobe.com
deb. for ubuntu 8.04+
Installer failed on writing page @ 2%
Start ups would give message Nautilus had to shut down.
Web help gave instructions for useing terminal.
Terminal would open with "d...@ubuntu:~$"
Trying to use would generate "There was an error creating the child
process for this terminal"
AT the same time all keys would lock out- mouse, keyboard and
power/reset on CPU
Pull Power Plug to shut down. After a few of these in interest of
saving hard drive boot into XP and uninstalled 9.10
Download and made live disk and reinstalled ubuntu version 9.04
with windows installer.
Been 3 weeks now with no problems, even using Shiretoko for
browser, once burned---
