Hello, Leann I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst as you indicated, and it worked. No need to write acpi=off at startup now.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to install the linux-image-2.6.25 kernel package because Hardy won't connect to the Internet. It's been like that since Alpha 1, I mean, the icon in the notification area shows that I have a wired internet connection, but neither Firefox nor Synaptic can access the Internet. Weird, isn't it? In System>Administration>Network everything seems to be up and running, but I can't get online. :( Nelson On Sun, May 18, 2008 at 4:45 AM, Leann Ogasawara <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Nelson, > > Sorry for the delayed response.
