** Description changed:

  Hi guys,
  
- I just wanted to run the RC on my iMac (latest model, 24" with 2,8GHz)
- and found several bugs, the biggest of all being the first:
+ I just wanted to run the RC live-cd on my iMac (latest (8,1) model, 24"
+ with 2,8GHz and ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT) and found a bug when booting it:
  
- - normal booting of the CD is not possible, Ubuntu fails to initialize
- the graphical UI. Can't go into verbose mode or restart X either, safe
- boot works with a resolution of 1600x1200
- 
- - sound doesn't work (well, I didn't get to play around much with the
- settings due to another bug, see below)
- 
- - After starting into gnome the help-application starts in some kinda
- loop - hundreds of windows pop up with no possibility to kill them as
- they take up all the system resources. After a while the machine freezes
- due to the help-center-bug and has to be powered off via the power
- switch
- 
- I hope the major showkiller-bug can get fixed before the final comes
- out, let me know what I can do to help.
+ Normal booting of the CD is not possible, Ubuntu fails to initialize the
+ graphical UI. Can't go into verbose mode or restart X either, safe boot
+ works with a resolution of 1600x1200. After installing Ubuntu
+ downloading the fglrx-drivers fixes everything but that doesn't help
+ with the live-cd problem.
