Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if you are uncertain if they are bugs. For help on reporting bugs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#When%20not%20to%20file%20a%20bug.

Jolicloud is not supported here as it is not a Canonical release. Other Ubuntu based systems which are not Ubuntu (and are equally NOT supported here) include but are not limited to:

Crunchbang
Ultimate
Mint
Backtrack
Fluxbuntu
MoonOS

and many more.

I suggest you either install a Canonical release to get support here or post on a Jolicloud forum for support.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Kevin Cloete for more information if necessary.
