Lisi recommended a windows application that I can download and use. When I tried to copy it to CD the data would not verify, so I don't have it working yet. Thanks for the explanation. It makes sense why people seem to keep saying I have no virus. Are there no virus' written to screw with Linux? And, won't a windows virus infest a Linux OS? Just trying to learn. The guy said he was running Kubuntu, not windows. > As much as I am with you worrying about your relatives, this > conclusion is bulshit, to put it mildly.

I received the email the day the email stopped working and could not reply to an event that was taking place that very day. As soon as I got the laptop working, I got updated. Whether you understand or not, I don;t know the things you know, so when my daughter abruptly stops sending emails, I am very concerned. Murphey's law still works, and may be the case here.

The broken computer isn't connected at all right now.. I am getting a lot of help right now that I wasn't getting before and started working on other things. I have just connected the broken computer; it has power, but is not connected to the Internet. I haven't been using the routher, because I have been spending some time trying to fix my new computer. Do you want me to connect to the router so that the laptop and broken computer are both connected? Or do just want me to copy and send the ifconfig just the way it is, not connected to the modem or router. Your plea sounded like you didn't think I would comply.~ sudo ifconfig steven@steven-laptop:~$ sudo ifconfig [sudo] password for steven: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:08:02:93:4f:8c inet addr:192.168.1.64 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::208:2ff:fe93:4f8c/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:241534 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:151888 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:325396917 (325.3 MB) TX bytes:15749526 (15.7 MB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:36 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:36 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1920 (1.9 KB) TX bytes:1920 (1.9 KB) steven@steven-laptop:~$ steven@Yeshua:~$ sudo ifconfig [sudo] password for steven: eth0 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:0d:88:1c:a7:71 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 collisions:0 tx queuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0:0 B) TX bytes:(0:0 B) Interrupt:17 Base Address:0xd800 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:05:39:47:8d UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU 1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 collisions:0 tx queuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0:0 B) TX bytes:(0:0 B) Interrupt:18 Base address:0xd400 eth2 Link encap Ethernet HWaddr 00:08:74:d4:1f:3a UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 collisions:0 tx queuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:(0:0 B) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:132 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:132 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 collisions:0 tx queuelen:0 RX bytes:9552 (9.5 KB) TX bytes:9552(9.5 KB) steven@Yeshua:~$ > Then report back, waht you found on both machines.

I am sure I did not give you what you wanted for the broken computer, but I don't know how you want it connected, direct to the modem or to the router. I connected the broken computer to the router and the laptop to the router; but the broken computer still will not comunicate. The readings were the same as when not connected.
