Hi everyone,
just changed from windows to ubuntu, so Im a bloody newbie...
My computer: Acer Aspire 5610, latest BIOS v3.60, Intel Centrino Duo Core T2050 @ 1,6 GHz, Intel 945PM/GM express-chipset, intel PRO/wireless 3945ABG Wi-Fi CERTIFIED, nVidia Geforce Go 7300, HD 120 GB SATA
OS: Windows XP on 1. Partition, Ubuntu 8.10
My problem: I could only make the installation run with "noapic", when booting there is the same problem... when booting 'the normal way(no noapic)' there is a lockup at third 'bar' with capslock blinking.
Now that ubuntu is installed, there are random system lockups with capslock blinking.
I once tried to install knoppix and ophcrack and had similar problems, so I guess linux and my hardware dont like each other :(
Can anyone help, pease?
Best, timo
