How to disable ipv6 on #ubuntu #karmic without messing with grub

sudo kate /etc/sysctl.conf
add this line
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1

reboot or disable without rebooting
sudo su 
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6


you can enable back
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6
Dear kernel devels and ubuntu motu masters , for me there is no ipv6 internet in the world and i don't have any ipv6 routers
But i need fast internet in arora browser and you know that glibc sux and doesn't
work well in resolving hosts fast in an ipv4 world where i live

I don't want to mess with grub because of the raid configuration, so, finally I found here something that is working.
No IPV6!
Thank you.
