Bug ID: 526085
Summary: Live disk for KDE Linux boots into blank screen
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: KDE Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
Live disk for KDE Linux boots into blank screen, does not progress
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Attempt to install KDE Linux with live usb created with KDE ISO Image
Writer, the GNOME Disks.
2. First used image kde-linux_202608230531, then kde_linux_202609200254.
3. Have used different USB drives, all have worked on other PC/laptops, all
have failed on subject laptop.
4. Other installation media (Ventoy, fedora, arch, ubuntu) currently work
successfully on the subject laptop.
OBSERVED RESULT
Installation media does seem to activate, however there is only a blank screen.
EXPECTED RESULT
Would expect that live session would begin.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
kde-linux_202608230531.iso, then kde_linux_202609200254.iso
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is an old, but extremely reliable laptop, a fairly thorough process of
elimination seems to point with the livedisk/installation media, perhaps a
graphics card issue.
