I have my parents old computer and wanted to install ubuntu on it on the advice of a friend. I want to replace the computer's windows xp. I put the cd in and reboot the computer. I get the ubuntu's desktop backround and the bar along the top. I get a window that asks me whether i want to fully install ubuntu or to just try it and it asks what language i want to install it with. If i click on either of these options it just sits there and thinks. So i went to (i think) system controls and found the 'intall ubuntu'. If i do it from here i get an error message saying that it couldn't access the Xauthorization file or something to that effect....any ideas?
