I have a acer aspire 6530 laptop with athlon x2 (64) and built in ATI Radeon HD3200 i am able to get ubuntu 9.04 (64) installed and graphics working but when i try 9.10 (64) beta 5 i cant, the laptop gets hung at the login stage ask me for user name then password and trys to get to desktop then flickers the screen and user name box reappears again. i like being out on the edge and i am really liken ubuntu but this just kills me any suggestions.

You should only use development software if you know how to troubleshoot problems. Ubuntu 9.10 is still an alpha, yes that was alpha 5, and I'd strongly encourage not using it for anything other then testing purposes.
