Reassuring/Disconcerting service

new power adapter for DSL modem arrived.
Was the old one dangerous, or are they just being nice?


Should I move my modem to a metal/stone shelf unit, away from all flammable materials?

bad Karma on older laptop?

I too had some difficulties upgrading my ubuntu to 9.10

on an older laptop wubi install;

did kill the install; Kernel panic on restart....

on the fresh install, also didn't quite get the screen setup correctly.

Fortunately wubi installs all go into a big disk file, so I have a copy of that on an external drive, with all my config settings.

Then did a fresh, clean install, and copied back my data.

One thing I found not working the way it used to was the microsoft VPN;

the commandline works, but the gui didn't work out of box, like it did last time.
