for your convenience, dell have their own linux spot http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_8.04 get the recovery dvd for 8.04.1 n just load it to your partition...it should solve all your questions. usually when u can see the desktop n u can connect to internet...those drivers r installed -.-" isnt it? other than gfx drivers, others will be loaded when the kernel started, this isnt winblows

Hey guys, im on Linux Mint but since the Linux Mint thread is dead I have post this here.

My sister was using my PC to play some online flash based games, I was not at home at that time. She climed that suddenly an error window popped up and she just clicked ok and the computer restarted itself.

When I got home the computer would not connect to the internet, it says something about some PAD0 error. I usually set the pc to automatically connect and I will use the sudo poff dsl-provider command to disconnect if I need to disconnect to off and on my modem cos Streamyx totally "rocks".

When I got home later that day, I turned on the computer but it refused to go online and when I typed sudo pon dsl-provider in the terminal, terminal would hang for abit then say that pppoe did not respond.

I havnt had time to reformat the thing and I set up a manual connection and connecting manually seems to work fine.

So... any ideas what the hell PAD0 error is?

Thanks alot guys

for temporary solution, i suggest u store your streamyx login data into your adsl modem, so when u on the modem it connects itself(hope your model able to do that). pad0 error seems to be telco related/your MTU in ubuntu need to change to match your modem's...either way, u need to connect into your modem setting web gui 1st, if u dont know the ip address, it might be 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.255...try to connect into your modem's web gui to control the modem n make it auto connect to streamyx

The PPPoE Active Discovery Offer (PADO) packet

When the Access Concentrator receives a PADI that it can serve, it replies by sending a PADO packet. The DESTINATION_ADDR is the unicast address of the Host that sent the PADI. The CODE field is set to 0x07 and the SESSION_ID MUST be set to 0x0000.

The PADO packet MUST contain one AC-Name TAG containing the Access Concentrator's name, a Service-Name TAG identical to the one in the PADI, and any number of other Service-Name TAGs indicating other services that the Access Concentrator offers. If the Access Concentrator can not serve the PADI it MUST NOT respond with a PADO.

okay, my problem solved alraedy,
i edit the /etc/network/interfaces
remove all the network manager
edit dns server,
and sudo etc/init.d/networking restart

but the problem now,firefox can't to connect ,
but opera can connect
that weird, so now i download back the firefox file
and will try it soon

i think all the files crash
so difficult to handle..

haha then i really wan2 find out what cause it, mayb 1 of the library screw it up...glad your problem is solved

Haha i finally can use back Emesene edi.
Lastime cannot use one. Thanks for remind me to try the emesene again.
But i still cant solve the meebo prob. I use Epiphany Web Browser also will crash. Same as in firefox. Haiz...

perhaps u can try to install ads block plus plugin in firefox as workaround, i do not encounter this issue tho...there r ppl reported this bug b4, but hard to recreate or find the cause of it

hey friends, why i can't use firefox on ubuntu ??
i just can use opera,
so i want to use firefox back
got any solution??

what do u mean cant use? crash? or cant connect to internet? or cant install?

can't connect to internet

try remove firefox configuration file

rm -rf .mozilla

and Ctrl+Alt+Tab to refresh ur xserver

and why every time i want to online,
i need to do this

if i dont do this , i can't get ip address from server and i can't onlinee

but after do this ,
i can online without problem..

how to permanent it?

have u installed network manager?

fastcx u do linux for a living?

i have already installed it,


by the way i'm use dhcp setting, if using roaming mode,
i can't get the ip address ,and can't online loll

not really, just im using it everyday, just based on my experience, i do repair/maintenance/retail for a living.

can your system be set to static ip? cause it seems during boot it didnt get u ip from dhcp server

is there a key which function just like windows control+alt+del, then "end process" for linux ubuntu?

thanks

You can do that by using "System Monitor" (System>Administration).

Have, a much more elegant way install gnome-do 1st, let it startup with system, when u have gnome-do, use win+spacebar, type in system monitor.. or simpler way, alt+f2, type in system monitor... or, use ubuntu tweak, set alt+ctrl+del as system monitor...many solutions to your "problem"
