Hello Roger, Happy Holidays, Unless I missed it we did not hear from you again. I'm sorry to hear that your first experience with Ubuntu isn't perfect. Linux does supports more and more hardware, however it is possible you may be doing nothing wrong and are just unlucky with your hardware.
I can't tell for sure from your question where the problem is. With as much detail as you can provide, what version of Ubuntu are you using? Where did you get the disc? Exactly how and where does it say "it's loaded?" What kind of hardware are you using? In what area do you live? If you live in the SF Bay Area or near to any Linux meeting in California it is more likely you can find a volunteer to help you in person. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/UserGroupContacts/Groups Regards, Grant Bowman https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 8:50 AM, Joe Smith <yasumo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hey Roger, > > You're trying to install Ubuntu version 9.10, right?
