Got it up and going last night after posting .I removed Urban Terror and re-installed it I dont know what happen when it installed if it got a bad file or what but it is working now.Ultimate Edition 2.5 is running good and I am slowly getting use to it.Not to much different then Microsofts garbage in the way things run.I am running it without any other OS installed on a Western Digital 500gig sata hard drive.It seems a little sluggish but not to bad better then my XP I did have installed.Not going to be able to play Cabal anymore because of the Xtrap problem but can live without it.Have a cousin in Arizona who runs Linux she is going to send me Win4Lin to run some programs I use .I will have to figure out Wine to install my Diablo I like playing on a friends private server since I shut down my server over a year ago.Then check to see if I can get Dekaron to run in Wine also,which I play on a private server also.
Thanks for the posts .I will post any other problems I have as I find them,hopefully I can figure out most bugs on my own.Is there a way I can see how much bandwidths I'm using when I go online with certain programs.My 5 year old daughter plays games on here thru Firefox on Facebook and some lag pretty bad.She loves there Happy Pet and Petville and since she been on here in the last week I have noticed how slow they load compared to my girlfriends Windows computer.Have installed the flash player and did updates on Firefox but no help with the issue.i ran Firefox on my XP when it was installed and did not have an issue.

Thanks Again For The Posts
It was way better a response then Microjunk Ever did!

Hello DarkSoul_DST.

At this time there are some issues with FireFox!!!
After the last Update something want wrong and FireFox is Freezing all the time.
So at this point of time I will Advice you to use Swiftfox ,
you can add Swiftfox from the Ubuntu Tweak 3 Party.
After you have add the source from the 3 Party,close the Ubuntu Tweak,
Open Synaptic - search for Swiftfox and add your Swiftfox under your Machine Platform.
This will work batter for you at this point of time.

Hello, I have updated Firefox on several linux computers and different versions Ultimate Edition and have no issues at this time. I did however have trouble downloading anything (right after I did the update)--the download window remained blank. I restarted that computer and that issue went away. Other that that one issue on the one computer, no other problems have occurred at this time.
