I have the HP Dx2000MT computer.
I've installed 2 gigs of memory, and it has a 500 gig hard drive now. It comes with built in Intel graphics, but I use my own Nvidia graphics card.
Up until recently, I ran many versions of Linux on this machine.
Now newer versions of linux are cropping up that crash when I try to load them up.
Is there something wrong with the Intel 865 chipset that will not allow newer versions of linux to load? I think it has something to do with onboard graphics. When I use the built in graphics solution, the machine boots just fine. When I use the Nvidia card, it doesn't work at all. Before this, I had a X1300 ATI card, thinking a different graphics card might be the solution...but so far no luck.
I use a dual booting solution...I use Windows XP, and I alternate between Xandros 4.5 and Ubuntu 8.04. Ubuntu 8.10 and higher simply will not boot. Debian 5.0 and newer versions of Mandrake, Fedora and such also will not boot.
Help??
