[ubuntu-in] need help - for rebooting / opening

[sivakumar bharadhwaj]

Dear Sir,

THIS IS SO FAST.

Ubuntu (and for that matter any LINUX) makes us to explore - sometimes
blundering into things.

I just wanted to evaluate (!!!!!) for myself - about my Jaunty to open SUSE
11.  I just did this for this reason.

As you rightly pointed out, I would now not venture too much into these -
till I learn more.

As for as 8.04 - what is that (is it herdy heron - forgive me if I am
wrong), where will I get a CD in chennai.

Is there any solution for my problem ...

thanks - FOR A VERY QUICK RESPONSE.
