Tried to install ubuntu 8 on an old Dell Dimension last year. Wouldn't work and just went to a blank screen after the initial boot process. Installed opensuse, which worked fine, but I don't particularly like it. I decided to try ubuntu again after good experiences with Netbook Remix.
Anyway, installed 9.1 and it worked a treat. Until last week when it was updated and now it won't boot. It does all the preliminary bit, then the white circle type symbol, then you get a flashing dash in the top left hand corner, then the screen just goes blank and stays blank.
