Hey all,
I tried to load Ubuntu on my Hp Pavilion a1100n computer, and it refused to load the live CD. It kept getting stuck about a third of the way into the loading bar. XP - with it's text based installer - loaded fine, so I assumed it must have had something to do with the GUI. I downloaded the text based installer version of 9.04, and it ran perfectly. I assumed, that, like windows, after it was installed it would have no issues with running a GUI.
Mistake.
Ubuntu will NOT get past the 1/3 point in the loading bar, whether I'm booting into recovery mode or not. It stops, the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock LED's blink at me (and continue to do so until the computer is rebooted) and then it presents me with a page of text. I'll recreate it here
