HI Jerry (and others), sorry 7 hour time difference. I ran ifconfig this morning:
Link encap: Local Loopback
inet addr: 127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1
RX packets:192 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX pactets: 192 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
collisions;0 txqueuelen:1
Rx bytes:15136 (15.1 KB) TX bites:15136 (15.1 KB)
I ran this NOT plugged into the ethernet cable.
Not sure if these two things are significant:
1) when I clicked to install LL a message popped up about needing a "kernel" (not sure if said it was missing or needed updating...I was going to take a picture of the message, however it did not remain on the screen to allow me to do so and simply went on to load LL.
2) unlike any of the other computers, LL shows up on my screen "extra large" (larger than the screen). I will go into desktop and see if I merely need to adjust this. Thought I should mention these two things in case they are relevant.
