Please help me with download

[BHASKAR SHARMA.N]

It's better ordering the dvd pack of ubuntu if no faster
internet/unlimited download connection available..especially dial
up..no driver,no dial up ppp program in ubuntu cd..As that cd doesn't
have enough packages.Even downloaded dvd contain no multimedia+other
essential packages..  (newer version is having top apps like
Gparted,torrent tracker,gnome chess etc. That's nice..).. It's better
if it contain a program to get required driver for all devices.the
present program is not finding all...
