Ok so I just recently bought a second hand computer which has windows on it, and I've been trying to install ubuntu for the past couple of days but it wont work.
when I put in the cd I get to the menu where I can choose between 'Try Ubuntu', 'install', etc...
I first selected Install Ubuntu but the screens just goes blank and sits there doing nothing. Tried with a newly downloaded cd written at the slowest speed but it gave me still the same. So I decided to select 'Try Ubuntu' and at first it did nothing, but after a while (180 seconds i thought it said) it began to give me error codes, being
udevd[72]: worker [78] failed while handling
'/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:05.0'
I did some research and found that it probably has something to do with my pci graphics card (as it's the only one plugged into a pci slot) but I haven't got a clue as to what to do to solve the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Lars
