    if i remember correctly, the new xorg system doesnt use the xorg.conf file anymore.

    [ubuntu] Re: Drivers for laptop? What do I do?

    have you actually installed ubuntu? or are you just running it off from the cd when it hangs?

    Im thinking that you dont have enough ram for the live cd and is the reason why its hanging.
