I thought I better let you know that I added the mem=xxM to the end of the
line. At first I made it 50M and it ran a lot better but still not good. So
then I made it 32M and now Ubuntu will not boot. It gets as far as the
STARTING UP .......screen and just parks there.
Thanks for your help I thought we had it there for a minute or two.

As far as I can see the kernel sees only part of your memory. Edit
/boot/grub/menu.lst, go for line that looks like
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic
root=UUID=29431061-d88b-456a-980e-76c187a1ef70 ro quiet splash
and add an extra parameter mem=xxM where the xx is the amount of your system
memory in megabytes, the space reserved for integrated display adapter
reducted. That should do the trick, just do not put too high number there.

Bug description:
Installed 8.04LTS yesterday, was running 7.10. 8.04 is running slowly. So
slowly that its really not usable. Is there any thing that I can do about
this?
7.10 ran fine with the exception of an occasional freeze. I'm hoping to be
able to use this newer version because of what I read it was going to be
like. Thank you for any help you may provide.
