Public bug reported:
The Jaunty alpha 4 live cd stops responding on a macbook 1.1 (1st
generation, intel core duo 32bit, 2GB memory).
This happens right after the desktop background has appeared and before
any gnome panels are loaded. The mouse cursor "hourglass" stops spinning
but can still be moved around. Ctrl-alt backspace does not work.
I have tried to boot 3 times, each time with exactly the same result.
One trial was booting from an external cd drive rather than from the
built-in one, with the same result.
The CPU did not seem idle, however. Macbooks tend to make an annoying
sound when the CPU is in the lowest power saving state, and I could hear
it periodically switching between power saving states, indicating the
CPU was at least doing something. I gave it about 5 minutes, but gnome
still did not load.
