Hi all, so I just finished High School, got a scolarship for an I.T Degree, and they gave me one of these. First off, beautiful piece of hardware. OSX sucks. I've dipped into Ubuntu a few times on my own home pc, and quite liked it, I boot it up all the time, but keep windows for games. Anyway. My goal is, to have Ubuntu on my laptop, fully functioning.
Anyway, I was following this guide http://cberner.com/2012/10/
I got up to step three, but when I added nomodeset to "quiet splash" so it was "quiet splash nomodeset" whenever I boot into ubuntu it's just command line? What was nomodeset meant to do? What have I done wrong?

Cheers
