[svlug] networking on kubuntu 7.10

[Richard L. Halpert]

Once you find out if the livecd works, send us the output of the commands
"ifconfig" and "sudo route" on the installed copy (and the livecd if it
works correctly there).  I'm not much of an expert on this stuff, but this
info will definitely help the more savvy people on the list.
