      Re: Won't let me get software from Internet.

      well, taking another tack.

      I got to thinking that, given it was a valid question, that several distros that I've tried "live" would not give access to installing new software because they were a ...ummmm....live cd... now yes, i guess that software could be installed into ram but anyway...

      IF it was a valid question, I wonder if there was just something messed up with the USB install that would not allow new software a'la the live cd thing.

      If so, is there a database of info that the people who have done usb installs(for sale) over the past coupla years or is it "probably" just a hardware thing since it was NDIS wrapper anyway...

      But it may have been a troll thing..

      dunno, it just ran through my mind, in one ear and out the other!

        I agree, any question is valid.

        But this is a welcome little heaven of politeness in the big and brutal www (even if we do have "discussions" over in the café section ) and the less blockheads the better.

        apt-get remove --purge troll

          Heh. "root" turns out to be just a state of mind -- like "in charge"; fine till the wife gets home. Then .....

            The kindness of my fellow posters aside - the OP in no way constitutes any sort of legitimate query IMO.

            Seriously, if I was a mod - I'd would have just deleted the post and the user beforea flame-fest started.

            But that's way I think.

              But then we wouldn't have had all the good jokes. Anyway, it's still not too late to move the thread to humour.

                Good point!

                Plus I've learned a couple of new commands!

                Next for my system I'm hoping for

                sudo apt-get purge --with-tuition college_students

                and

                sudo apt-get install --ignore-whine jobs4.kids
