Hello,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L50-C-14U laptop previously running on Windows 10.
I have tried multiple methods to install Ubuntu, such as from a USB drive, CD, wiping the drive first or during installation etc...
However with every attempt I get a flashing screen during installation or boot, which sometimes loads after a very long time and sometimes never does.
I managed to get it installed once, however the only way to boot into the OS was through the recovery mode, then continuing to normal boot. Once on the desktop I could not control brightness in any way.
The system said the graphics were "gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe", yet the laptop has integrated Intel graphics (i3 processor).
I have attached a video of the problem here (https://photos.app.goo.gl/DYWB6696UGKgaWAH3). I appreciate the quality is not great but it looks very much like a strobe light in real life.
I have also tried about every solution I could find online, so any help would be much appreciated (I am also new to Ubuntu and Linux in general).
