Help needed about Ubuntu installation

 

Dear friends,



I have just downloaded Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop version and browsed the trial
version without installing it onto my laptop. OK, I love it. I have decided
to get rid of Windows 7 and install Ubuntu as the sole OS. However, I have
got three questions before I do it. 1) Ubuntu couldn’t detect any wireless
networks. Was that because I run only the trial version? I am really
concerned about it as I am a frequent Internet visitor. 2) Ubuntu preloaded
movie and audio players couldn’t play anything from my external HD. I got
warning that plugin MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer was missing and couldn’t be
found (as I couldn’t access Internet, I guess).

When you help me to solve the first problem, I suppose I will be able to
download the missing plugins. This leads to question 3) Once I download the
necessary missing plugins, what am I supposed to do with them? How to
install them?



Thank you very much in anticipation.



Greetings from Croatia!
