*The following fix works for the Acer Travelmate 2350 and Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit desktop standard installation CD*
In short: 1) At the screen with a keyboard and stickfigure, press Enter to get to the menu. 2) Hit Enter to select your language, and then press F6 and then Esc. 3) Add "i915.modeset=1" after "quiet splash". 4) Press Enter to boot the LiveCD. The page with the instructions on how to make the fix also on a non-liveCD system is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes The link provided might prove itself useful also for other laptops, as the introductory paragraph states: "X freezes (GPU lockups) are being experienced on i845, i855 and other 8xx chips. We experimented with several different settings but could not find a combination which resolved all issues for all 8xx owners. Below are some of the settings that can be changed if the combination we picked for the release did not work for you."
