I am trying to install Ubuntu 11.04 using a USB drive on a new Lenovo T420s. As soon as the installer tries to load windows manager the display goes blank with thin blue vertical lines covering 1/3rd of the screen from the right.

The USB installer works fine on other non-Lenovo systems.

Any thoughts?

Yes, you could try adding boot options. There are some links in this post:

Hi,

I have looked at the boot options, but don't see anything that applies to my situation.

Anyone else running into this issue?
