Public bug reported: This happens when I choose "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer". I have tried both the 32bit and 64bit live CDs, daily builds from 2009-09-16 and alpha5. For the daily build I have a brown background screen with the mouse cursor rotating, some white "lines" going up and down and the startup sound starting and then breaking in the middle along with the screen going blank. This happens repeatedly until I shut the computer down. For alpha5 I have the same situation just that there is no sound. For alpha5 I tried installing, then it manages to start up (I can go back and forth between pages), until I say Quit and then the above scenario happens again.
My setup is: Asus M2N Motherboard, AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+, 4GiB Memory and a Harddrive with Ubuntu 9.04 installed (that works) and other ntfs partitions. I don't have any special cards installed on the motherboard. On another computer I've tried both CDs and they start up without any problem. The 32 bit Live CD also starts up on the problematic computer if I ran it virtually with Virtualbox (Ubuntu 9.04's host system). Is this the same bug as Bug #428825? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Karmic Live CD crashes at startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/431216 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
