** Description changed: The Jaunty alpha 4 live cd stops responding on a macbook 1.1 (1st generation, intel core duo 32bit, 2GB memory). - This happens right after the desktop background has appeared and before - any gnome panels are loaded. The mouse cursor "hourglass" stops spinning - but can still be moved around. Ctrl-alt backspace does not work. + In Ubuntu, this happens right after the desktop background has appeared + and before any gnome panels are loaded. The mouse cursor "hourglass" + stops spinning but can still be moved around. Ctrl-alt backspace does + not work. + + Update: bug also present in kubuntu. The live cd stops loading when the + first four icons of the kubuntu boot splash are visible (the last one + shown is the desktop-icon). + + Update: bug still present in jaunty alpha 5. I have tried to boot 3 times, each time with exactly the same result. One trial was booting from an external cd drive rather than from the built-in one, with the same result. - The CPU did not seem idle, however. Macbooks tend to make an annoying - sound when the CPU is in the lowest power saving state, and I could hear - it periodically switching between power saving states, indicating the - CPU was at least doing something. I gave it about 5 minutes, but gnome - still did not load. + In all cases, the CPU did not seem idle, however.
