Well i had a problem that has been temporarily solved.
i couldn't get my wireless to work at all- after following man guides and many times reinstalling and what not i have given up i know its sad but true. well temporarily given up, i just couldn't be without a working pc anymore. So i took the only other disk i had (pclinuxos mini) and installed. after installation i decided to try and get the wireless working. to my amazement it was so simple. just opened the Configure your computer icon and selected configure wireless and it did the rest. Had all the drivers i would need. anyways what im trying to say is - if you just fix that one issue with drivers then you had me at hello. I loved the look and overall speed of Ubuntu 8.04 it is great. but i am not a computer wiz and don't have anymore time to waste. anyways thats my only problem- i will try again after the next release - sorry guys see you in a few months.
