Yeah, but I had a known good CD of 8.10 that I could use to get up and running for now.
I tried 11.04 but Unity will not work on my computer! I suspect it's got to do with my old monitor, but it flashes things for 1/100th of a second or so, or if I click on icons, they disappear! That's beyond just "getting on my nerves".
I have downloaded 10.04 LTS and Lubuntu 10.04 a few minutes ago. I'll see what either of those will do, but in the mean time, I'll stop Jonesing about not being able to get online.
A friend told me that I might have gotten ahold of Linux-CE (Christian EXperience), which is anti-atheist and when you try to invoke anything, it gives back Christian rebukes, exorcisms, and warnings on invoking demons and ghosts.... not to mention that it does NOT like the DAEMONs that lurk in Linux or other Unix-like operating systems. Of note, there is also Linux-ME (Muslim EXperience) which instead quotes verses from the Koran, but also warns about invoking software routines equating them to spirits and ghosts.
This same friend of James claims there's a Cthuhlu version coming out soon.
