Thanks to Luke and Gerhard for verifying that OO will work fine on Karmic US. I've got another terrible problem, though, and that's with the install routine - it doesn't get far so nothing bad happened to my system, but the problem is that it returns an error rather quickly that says it can't mount the CD-ROM. This may be a general problem with Ubuntu though as I tried the ordinary Karmic ISO too, and it freezes and the screen goes black while the little grey Ubuntu symbol is pulsing.

Details are here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305767

In the past, I've run successful installs of UbuntuStudio (9.04) and a couple of versions of UltimateUbuntu as well. So it's not my hardware.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Todd
