I used a HP t5720 thin client and successfully installed Ubuntu 12 on the system. Ubuntu 13 will not install, since a video test loops for ever.
I think that it may be caused by the "LightDM Display Manager". Is there something I could do to prevent this from happening?
The processor is: AMD Geode NX1500 at 1GHz and the video chip: SiS741GX, 2048 x 1536 32-bit colour

To be more precise: (X)ubuntu 12.04 installs fine, but 12.1 does not
Thanks!

X12.04 is a LTS and supported for three years. The next X' LTS release is 14.04. If you would wait, you can upgrade direct to the latest LTS release(14o4) in a few months, skipping 12.10, 13.04 and 13.10.
