I am completely new Linux systems especially Ubuntu. I am currently using 11.04 and I ran into some trouble and I really need your help.
Everything was working fine for the past several days until a few minutes from now when I opened my Ubuntu desktop I have problems that I really don't have any idea about WHY I have this and HOW I got this error.
When I opened my Mozilla Browser there is a dialog box that is asking for authentication. Im sure I haven't done any changes on the settings to eanable this.
This is what is asked in the dialog box:
Authentication Required
A username and password are being required by http://google.com. The site says: "AirStation: Enter "root" for username."
I tried to use the username "root" and used my password but it says error.
I tried to ignore this and tried other things. I tried to install something using "Ubuntu Software Center". When I clicked the "Install" button there was a pop up message that appeared and it says:
Network service discovery disabled
Your current network has a .local domain, which is not recommended and incompatible with Avahi net service discovery. This service has been disabled.
I don't what is Avahi software and how it got into my system. I can't recall installing this thing. Please help. Thanks in advance.
