I have had to put a hold on this instruction.  Yesterday, an update for 
Jaunty has caused   me to lose video completely.  I haven't gotten it 
back yet.  I am waiting for an update that fixes it.  Because of my lack 
of experience, I have been installing all updates without reviewing 
them.  Strangely enough I noticed the download of a new fix for the 
180.37 nvidia driver.  I did not want it but was too slow to stop it.  
It installed and I lost my GUI.  When I boot to try to fix, the error 
messages show a fatal error relating to nvidia, and I am pretty sure it 
was that update.  I guess I am going to have to wait for the fix to come 
in another update.  Do you know any to reverse the last driver update?  
If I could get it out, I things would work fine again.  Even with this 
troublesome problem, I still love the new Jaunty.  It is something else 
for an improvement.

I had to build this box I am writing from just to have access to the 
Internet and email.  It is a little slow, but works until the update 
arrives.
