Finally, Ubuntu 9.10


After my failed wubi install last week I cannot help but think was I just wasting my time using Ubuntu. Or getting to learn Ubuntu.  Maybe this is not just for me.  

I immediately emailed George, my guru when it comes to Ubuntu (and probably the reason why I am trying this thing), he immediately had an  answer.

The wubi install was the culprit.  And if I want to use Ubuntu I might as well install it natively on my CD as Ubuntu itself. From the CD.

Following day I immediately downloaded the ISO for Ubuntu and got ready to install at night. 

After the successful installation I immediately checked if the wireless was working, it was not after the wubi install so I had to check if it is on native install. It  still was not.  BUT, after checking out the available drivers, my wireless driver was present, I just had to apply. Nice!

Now, I am using Ubuntu 9.10 installed on my laptop Drew.

I haven't Introduced Mr. Drew right?  I think that's for another entry here. :)

Have a great night!
