Title:
Hardy - Samsung X11 won't boot with 3GB ram
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
With 2 GB of RAM in the notebook, Gutsy works fine. Once I put in
another GB module, Gutsy crashes at startup causing an immediate
reboot.
I think the problem is related to the Nvidia drivers. Neither the
opensource nor the binary driver work. I can boot up with 3GB and the
vesa driver however.
I attached dmesg outputs of a normal boot with 2GB and the binary
driver as well as a boot with 3 gb in safe graphics (selected in
grub).
I am currently using the newest nvidia driver (installed via Envy) but
I have the same problem with the default Gutsy nv driver. Both 32 bit
and 64 bit versions crash.
I really hope someone can help me with this, as I'd really prefer to
use 3 GB.
Thank you in advance!
P.S.: Before Ubuntu I used Windows Vista which worked with 3 GB. I removed
it, but I just wanted to say there must be some way to use the nvidia chip with
3GB :)
