[Bug 507288] Re: similar to #466109 but happened with live USB stick on Dell 910 (ubuntu 8.04-->9.10)

Mon Apr 26 13:11:25 UTC 2010

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for the inquiry.  I have not tried doing anything further on my
own; I chose to stick with ubuntu 8.04 for my Dell netbook.

Perhaps you sent me a "form letter".  I looked at the
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ <http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/> and was not
sure what you meant by "latest development release".  Also, I was not sure
what machine I should be trying that realease on.  So I have chosen to not
do anything further unless you can clarify what you are asking.  I am what
you might call a "newbie" as far as trying to debug linux releases.

Thanks,
Ernie
