I've since uninstalled Ubuntu, I was never able to figure out how to instal my speedtouch modem to get online, so it wasn't updated. It was the cd image of 6.10. The package versions are the ones with that distribution.
I have to say that as a newbie to the Linux forums I'm less than impressed with the Ubuntu people. I discovered the bug, and joined to report it. I had several requests for further info in some sort of morse code......I mean WTF??? I replied to one explaining that the question was obviously English but as a question it made no sense, and to re-ask the question as a question and not a series of words.....I got a few others in the same gibberish. Thank you Sebastien, at least you asked me in English, in the form of a question. Yours is the first reply that I've understood, hence the lack of a reply from me. I've tried the IRC channel; it's awkward..I've tried in here and it's all code. I may look for a different Linux with a more user friendly community. -- able to change root pass without confirming old pass https://launchpad.net/bugs/84224 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
