Finally sorted out my laptop.A friend came round and loaded Mint on it,writing a tutorial to sort out the Ubuntu non compatible chip problem as he did so,It took over 4 hours.There you go ,he said triumphantly.No we didn't,DVDs still wouldn't play.Heyho,back to Ubuntu 9.10.We have a disc;it's corrupted.The friend has a disc; it's corrupted.
We finally did a weird end around using a memory stick, all I need to do now is restore my backed up bookmarks and some of the pix/macros I keep on it cos I use them all the time.
I do things in a certain order every morning when I turn on my puter.Went to the Snakepit to read the review of last nights game ,totally forgetting I was the guest recapper,d'oh.
