Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
I was attempting to boot the Herd 5 CD with the regular installation
option (as opposed to the safe graphics mode one, which I am writing
this from).
After the initial load graphic (bar filling up okay, though there was an
odd line of orange at the left end of the bar) I get a black screen with
a blinking "_" character in the top left corner. This is normal as far
as I know.
After this, though, the screen goes completely black and a few minutes
are spent with the CD whirring along and evidently something happening
in the background. After this it freezes, the CD stopping its spinning,
and while the power is still on nothing of consequence seems to be
happening.
This is a laptop (Fujitsu Amilo 1437G with ATI Mobility Radeon x700
graphics card) that had to be booted from safe mode in 6.06 LTS as well.
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Confirmed
