Comment 35 for bug 484856

Quoting WeatherGod <email address hidden>:totally agree but this may
throw some
light on the problem,tried opera on the ubuntu system but it would not load
Tried the live Cd version of ubuntu in Windows Vista and the same problem
occurred ,the system loaded up OK,connected up to my network OK,although
received a message re restricted drivers,as sonn as went on Mozilla
firefox,the welcome ubuntu page loaded but could not get any further as the
same problem happened as on the original system when the machine continued to
attempt to load but failed.The problem appears to lie with the CD bearing in
mind I have now loaded the ubuntu system down twice,once through update
manager
which resulted in the same problem and once on to CD through a windows based
computer,it may be I have to return to 9.04.Any sugestions?
