Hi forum,
I used to run Ubuntu on my old IBM Thinkpad R50e without any problems. Since I needed it for some other taskes I got rid of Ubuntu a while ago and wanted to reinstall it today. Since it worked fine 6 months ago I was a bit astonished to find out that not even the live CD will boot up with the current version. It doesn't matter if I choose to install or try the live version, it just freezes after the Ubuntu screen with the dots. I have a black screen and the computer doesn't do anything until I switch it off. Any ideas?
