Ok, a couple of days ago, after a long struggle, I finally managed to install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on both my laptop and desktop computers, from the live CD I had previously downloaded.
Now, I find I'm having the same issue on both machines, when I use the USB ports: whatever I plug in works perfectly, but the moment I unplug it (whether I just unplug it or I use the "safely remove drive" option), it completely crashes the OS, to the point that nothing works, not even the mouse, and I have to power down the machine, and power it back up.
Can anybody tell me WTH is going on, and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
