I kept hearing great things about the speed of Ubuntu 8.10s start-up
and decided to install it a few weeks ago. This release seems to be
plagued with issues, and in my opinion was not ready to be released as
"stable." I have worked out most of my problems, however...
Upon start-up about 10 seconds after powering on the computer, I am
presented with a black screen with a flashing (under-score) in the top
left corner. The machine will do this indefinitely unless I hold down
'ctrl' or 'alt'. After I hold down one of these keys, I am in 'X' in
about 30 seconds.
Any ideas?
System Info:
Compaq Presario laptop
AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-60
2GB DDR2 RAM
nVidia GeForce 7000M (NVIDIA Driver Version:177.80)
I would appreciate any help.
thank you,
-Eric
