Hello A great way to get rid of this bug and to promote Ubuntu would be the possibility to personalize the installation for those who have not yet the choice to purchase a new computer. In other words, a choice should be offered to create & download & write a specific CD with all the details provided by the user before he downloads, in order to enable a selection of the most appropriate tools for his computer. Period. As an example: I have a fujitsu-siemens "scenic T i845D" computer with a hyundai "ImageFlat L50A" monitor, a Logitech Acer "M-SBJ96" mouse, a french-switzerland Acer "SK1688" keyboard, and a Logitech" Quickcam Communicate STX". Assuming that there could be a selection on a main page, where I could enter all the hardware description I currently have, therefore it would be already extremely simple in as much as all the right stuff would be selected at this very first step and be written on a install CD for my computer and my computer only(*). I wrote this, because between the time of my first attempt with Linux and now, there has been several weeks of hectic quest and search amongst various forums. Finally, and thanks to a user name "Jean-lux" on a french ubuntu forum who took several hours of his time to help me online, my installation has been done "aux petits oignons" (to match exactly the hardware installed in my computer). And if I wrote this, it is also because the main "bug" in installing Ubuntu is the terrible feeling of being lost in a strange world, while with M$ everything is made to hold your hand firmly until everything works fine. Or so. Forgive please the lenght of my message and my terrible english. In french I would certainly do it better. Kind regards to everybody and thank you, Mark Shuttleworth! Long life to Ubuntu! ---------------------------------- (*) would that kill the sharing spirit of Ubuntu?
