Its my laptop that cant, and I have tried everything that has been mentioned to get it working and it wont get past the error you mentioned. I have to say though, I have noticed on bootup, on the net book, and its running the same version as the laptop, there are things missing on the bootup of the laptop, like the options which language to use, the version and something else found at the bottom of the login page. If I was kind of wondering because it used to be there on 9.04 now its not there. I have mentioned this before, and I am going to again, I have a feeling something is missing in the upgrade.
