hmm, seems ubuntu users starts growing..
so i think instead of creating multiple threads bout ubuntu prob, why not we cramp in everything in one thread..
even the thread might grow pages long, its worth to go thru as everything is related to ubuntu..

ok, i'll start 1st..

im having prob with repo, cant get gpg key
i cant update anything at all.. the update always stuck at 56%
(i refer--> http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories )

here's my source list

In Ubuntu Forum, that where lots of problems of Ubuntu were being posted and responded by Ubuntu community and developers.

IMHO posting Ubuntu problem in this forum, u may not get effective results as posting ur problem to Ubuntu's forum.

Beside Ubuntu's forum, there is Ubuntu's Wiki which enrich with important information contibuted by Ubuntu community and developers.

sounds like a bad internet connection or their server side prob

if you have probs with the download (sometimes i have too)
just download the add-on-cd (only for x86). it has the cache packages and does not require internet connections to install the common apps

check out http://ubuntuguide.org/add-on-cd
*i'm uploading an updated version right now. download it shortly (snapshot 2005-05-23)
*should be ready by tonight malaysia time

Ok, i have UBUNTU 5.10 and a BenQ 1640 DVD-RW drive.
Its seems that I can't install UBUNTU on my system.

Tried it with my friend's pc who is using BenQ 1640 too. So, basically it's the drive. I've also googled for a solution but still no hope...

Is there any settings I should tweak with to make it work?

Try enabling dma before installation...

type sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/hd? ---> whatever your dvd drive is...

see if it helps....

cheers.
