I don't know if the version has been updated. I got it from another source as suggested. That worked fine, so close it as far as I'm concerned.

I am installing it alongside windows xp media centre edition 32 bit on an acer aspire laptop using the download here: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer When I download and run the install, the installation fails just as it gets to completion. The error says to check a log file in the local settings folder. This log file finishes with the lines shown below. I think the installation should be able to find everything from the web download and install. What am I doing wrong?
