Hey all, Im having an issue with the installation of Ubuntu 10.04LTS, let me explain...
I tried installing with the LiveCD however wheen booting with the live CD it wont work, it will get froozen right when the desktop background is displayed, nothing will come up, no bottom or top bars, when right clicking no menu shows up, not even the NumLock light in the keyboard will turn off or on... I tried downloading and burning a new image but It wont work either... same issue... I downloaded the alternative version of 10.04.. i finally was able to install Ubuntu with the alternative CD,,, however afeter booting to the new OS, screen will boot and show the top and bottom part of the desktop however no icons or menus are displayer in neither of the bars, however this time I was able to open a menu that will show "System" and "Preferences" menu from the cursor, I thought it was the kernel or drivers, so I downloaded and installed all the updates including kernel updates, after booting with the new updates installed and using the new kernell the same issue showed up... no menus displayed... then I thought it was an issue with the proprietary drivers... so, using the same menu that I was able to open before I installed the NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the only one available... booted but same issue... no menus or icons in the bar... funny part its that I used the 10.04 version before, this version was an update from the 9.10, and it worked with no problems, however when installing from scratch it wont work... if I boot using 9.04 or 9.10 live cd it will boot and install with no problems,,, however I dont want to UPDATE from 9.10 to 10.04... any advise???
