I am able to do most of this but am having a problem at step 9. I also had to change step 8 to:
But anyway at step nine when I enter
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
It brings up the file that has to be changed but the terminal says:
Code:
(gedit:2092): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: Failed to create file '/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.VGSLAW': No such file or directory
(gedit:2092): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to set the permissions of `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: No such file or directory
I have no idea why this is happening (no surprise, I'm new to linux) but I think that it's the reason that this whole method won't work for me.
I am running ubuntu 11.10 and I'm certain I follwed all of the prior steps correctly, I would greatly appreciate some expert help right now!!!
