Hi Nicholas, I downloaded utopic-alternate-i386 (version 20141022). Burnt it to CD-R and installed it on:
Dell Optiplex GX50 (hostname vega) 1.3GHz Celeron 512MB RAM 20GB Hard disc CD-ROM drive The install completed OK except there was a warning "Undefined video mode number 314" that appeared twice. After the CD-R was ejected, the system was rebooted. When the login screen should have appeared, the screen went white and typing on the keyboard produced illegible black scribbles on the screen. Pressing CTRL+ALT+ some function keys seemed to change screens.
