This is my first go at a nix distro and I'm trying to install Mythbuntu 8.10 64-bit on a Dell Studio Hybrid. I have made it to the installation screen, and have tried both normal and safe video modes. I choose the LiveCD option, watch the status bar bounce back and forth and then the monitor goes dark - signal lost. Same issue occurs using both DVI out to my monitor or HDMI out to my tv.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Try getting the alternate iso. You can avoid graphical issues this way, but the installer is different and less user friendly.

Also, try downloading an older version of Mythbuntu and seeing if it will install. If it does, you can upgrade to 8.10 after it is installed.
