Hi, my machine has Intel Q965 express graphics. I'm trying to install hardy but it gives me a black screen after the load screen (at which point it would normally start the gui installer). I'm aware of the alternate install CD, but I'm a little hesitant to install with that if I'm going to run into the same problem when I boot into an actual install. Last time I checked Q965 is supported by the kernel. Am I wrong? Thanks!

is this hardy heron 8.04 or 8.04.1 ? the 8.04.1 release fixes some bugs
By the way, I've known users running into problems with the installer, yet they were successful using the alternate installer :) And it really worked afterwards, even their internet connection

It's 8.0.4.1. I managed to install with alternate install disk, and the screen still goes blank after the ubuntu load screen shows up for a little.
Now, if I boot into recovery mode and select root console, then do a
$ startx
it actually loads into X, high resolution / full colors. How can I debug this?
