Comment 9 for bug 129683

Alexander

I believe I did but it has been a while but I tend to be anal enough
that I follow instructions to the letter if I can. If I had gotten
errors I would have reported those I think.

I apologize but time marches on and I had to get work done. I realize
this takes time to analyze but I had to do something which would work. I
hosed my "Feisty" install and reinstalled 6.10 and now everything works
great.

I think I may have not done something right in the 7.04 install, I could
not install from my LiveCD, some bug related to a second hard drive, the
solution to which I searched a lot of dark corners in vain. So I just
did a clean install of 6.10 with all the latest updates and then updated
to 7.04. That initially seemed to work. Then occasionally things
started to act squirrelly, for example, at my login screen, I had to
type the first letter twice to make the keyboard active, and other tiny,
inconsequential things which led me to a hunch and an "uh oh" that
things just were not stable.

The final straw was when the update to Firefox came down the tube and it
totally hosed on me and I had to install Opera just to have a working
browser.

So, a long story and I apologize again for any effort you may have
expended on my behalf and I really do appreciate it. I hope my bug
report was useful to someone.
