[QUOTE="SirNerdsy, post: 2608840, member: 859026"] I've never heard of Ubuntu 2.8 UE until just now, and I'd assumed you had the numbers wrong. Apparently not...Anyway, open a terminal and try typing in "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" without the quotes, see if that does anything. If that fails, try "sudo ifconfig eth0 reset". Running Ubuntu on a flash drive does work, though you will tend to encounter far more problems than if you were to use a real hard drive. I've done it a lot of times with multiple versions, I found that Ubuntu 10.04.2 is by far the most stable. You also might consider trying Debian instead. Oh, and 11.04 will run with only 1GB of RAM, I'm using up only 580MB right now (This is a desktop, but it doesn't make a difference), with my web browser open, using Flash player, I've the terminal open, and my music player (Banshee) is running.
