[Moodle] wanted Ubuntu experts

[Arnott, Suzanne S]

Hi all...
well I bought back my notebook, so hubby had something to play on too :)  When XP failed to work, I thought I was very clever in installing UBUNTU... set up well, all good...
went to connect to the internet via LAN - nothing... I think I have checked out every help forum to no avail.  I have typed code into the terminal thingy, and checked admin, system, etc...
 
I can't even boot my mobile broadband USB on it. It won't run it. I was looking forward to having at least one microsoft free puter in the house...but if I can't connect to the internet it's not much use...
 
any thoughts?
cheers
Suz
