Hi Alan, I am not sure about hacking, the fact that so many things can go wrong, and I dont have enough experience to work things out, it makes me kind of worried. I am still having problems playing flash videos. Still cant get some types to play, and have to use windows to play them. Something I remembered to do, when I did sudo update-grub which by the way, was posted on there, by somebody on another e-mail, a lot of what came out of it, had errors on, so I took a copy of it. Not that I understood anything, which is why I took a copy. (not had a very good weekend, so completely forgot about that until this morning) I have added it to pastebin and here is the url to look at it. <a href="http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/63958" target="_blank">http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/63958</a> Hope that helps a little bit. The grub still doesnt show its Lucid, and it still has all 10 or so kernels showing, but it is loading Lucid. Yet after fiddling, turning machine on and off, it will eventually load. Can somebody help with this still? John. </blockquote><div> You may have too many kernels. In grub there is a setting to only use a specified number of kernels. I had this back on a 9.xx distribution. Either remove your older kernels (using the package manager / apt-get) or increase the number of kernels that grub will look for by editing the grub config file (I'd have to google this, as I cant remember exactly). I remember that in the older distribution grub started with the earliest kernels first, so the new ones never showed up. </div></div>-- John Stevenson <a href="http://jr0cket.com">jr0cket.com</a> <a href="http://leanagilemachine.com">leanagilemachine.com</a>
