Updates

EDIT:  I just read the post by ohjrson. Can you state that I won't have the same problems with ver 5.0? And can you also state that I won't experience other problems? If you can make one of those guarantees I might consider it. I'm extremely hesitant to attempt it considering there seems to be no solution to the two problems I have with ver 4.8.

Can I gaurantee either of those things? No, of course not. But there are no gaurantees with anything for that matter. This is open source, no gaurantees have ever been implied as far as I know. All I know is that for a while there I was turned off from LL as well, just from a simple stubburn issue that I had that eventually was resolved by time. UEFI coming into play on all computers. Now there is LL 5.0 that works with systems that have UEFI. I myself have installed it on 2 of my older systems and they work fine. The 10 key seems to operate ok as well. But I am only saying that because I am not sure you have the same keyboard as I do. Mine has the standard keyboard along with a set of keys that are like a calculator on the right of the board. It works fine. And there is an update. As far as burning the DVD I have good success using Unetbootin. BUt thats just me. Do what you want, but maybe consider trying it on the live CD.
