Yeh sorry same machine, completely flattened the xp partition, so its ubuntu only.
Do i use chmod and chown, if you could supply examples that would be great. I was going to use sudo chown -R 644 /lib/firmware/zd1211 sudo chmod 644 /lib/firmware/zd1211 is this the correct syntax? Thanks again for your help, i wish i knew more about linux so i wasnt such a pain in the ass Hin-Tak Leung wrote: > > > --- On Thu, 19/2/09, Redeye <jonatmm...@msn.com> wrote: > >> I didnt know 8.10 meant october, thanks for the explanation >> :) I presume the >> 8, bit is the year then > > Yes.
