I've got this problem too. I have an AMD processor and a GeForce GTX 460. I'd downloaded QQ beta last week but couldn't get it to boot. Tried again today with the latest daily build, but I have the same problem.
I get the initial purple screen with the accessibility options (at least, I think that's what the screen is!) Then it goes onto the screen with the Ubuntu name and the orange dots. The word Ubuntu is completely garbled and unreadable, so the graphics problem has already kicked in. Then it changes onto a mostly black screen with lots of little icons and random garbage spread all over the place. I can't move the mouse and it doesn't seem to respond to any keystrokes I tried. I can't get any kind of log reports because nothing works. I have to hit the reset button and restart my computer because it's completely frozen. I haven't tried the Nomodeset option yet but I wanted to report this bug, because it's a pretty big deal breaker for the average person if they're faced with the same result I got. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1043518 Title: live cd is unusable due to video degradation with the splash boot option enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1043518/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
