I'm quite tickled that, as I type this, I have Debian Etch installing

Do you expect it to work with all the hardware on the NSLU2?  Is that
one of the appeals of it?

Linux can be so useful. :)

Agreed.  But I recently found a very powerful desktop computer running
Windows XP.  Feeling sorry for the thing, I booted it into an Ubuntu
live CD.  The live CD runs like an installer at first, asking for my
keyboard layout and language.  And then, when we get to the part where
it should turn into a Linux desktop it fails.  I get a blinking cursor
in the upper left with an otherwise blank screen.  The computer is
running dual Nvidia GeForce 7800 GTXs, which is a PCI Express card.
I'm wondering if that's what's causing the trouble.

Ubuntu is the only thing I have on hand that will run on Athlon 64.  Alas.
