Well, that's no good, I noticed that the third option was the eeepc option, which is what it boots up into, and when I tried the the 5th option, it doesnt pick up the wireless network at all, its as if its isnt even installed.
The funny thing, as I have already mentioned, even though I click on the 3rd option, the eeepc kernel, it shows I'm running
Ubuntu 2.24.1
not eeepc. So, I am really confused why that is happening. Hope its not confusing to you.

Hi John,
If I remember correctly you are looking for the kernel version in the System Monitor? I think you may be looking at the wrong line, that is the version of Gnome :-) look above that line for the one that starts Kernel etc.
Or as Michael suggests, open a terminal and type "uname -a" and it will tell you the kernel you are running
Hi, sorry its taken me so long to get back to you, I just entered that command into the terminal and got this.
Linux username-laptop 2.6.27 -8-eeepc #1 SMP Sun Nov 16 12:02:12 MST 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
hope that helps. I can only get connected via the ethernet wire, if I look in the drop down menu for the wireless, there is no list for wireless connections.
John.
