Lucio, Thanks for the reply.
Downloaded the iso and burned a new CD. Tested it on same 2 machines, plus one more: 6-month old Toshiba laptop, with admittedly screwy wireless hardware (twice) Older Dell desktop, wired networking (twice) 2-month old home-built desktop, wired networking (once) RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller All three normally run some variant of Ubuntu. Xubuntu seems to run and then all five attempts hang at a command prompt saying ubu...@ubuntu~: nm-system-settings: Adding default connection 'Auto eth0' for /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/net<mac-address- with_underscores?> (That's typed-in rather than cut/paste so might not be 100% correct.)
