I down load desktop 12.04 LTS 32 bit ISO and installed it with live CD.
It succeeded and works now, but
from the boot menu and system monitoring,
it said:
Release: 12.04 (precise) 32 bits
Core: 3.2.0-23-generic-pae

it is weird : what is "3.2.0-23" and "pae" mean ???
why "-23" ??? why "pae" ???

PS: I upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 online on another PC desktop,
the core is "3.2.0-24-generic" --- it is "-24" ?!

what is "3.2.0-23"

It is kernel number.


what "pae" mean ?

See this. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE)

From terminal


sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

and that should upgrade kernel ( and other packages of course).

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Would fix it.
