[Bug 661939] Re: New install 10.10 hangs at start

 

keepitsimpleengr, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 706063
   Nvidia GT240 screen corruption after boot

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: apt
  
  When doing a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 from torrent downloaded iso
  to CD, the initial splash screen appears, then after a few minutes, the
  system hangs and display mild garbage on the screen.  This also occurred
  with xubuntu, mythbuntu (64 & 32 bit)
  
  Mythbuntu 10.04 64 & 32 bit test installs have both worked on this new
  system.
  
  I expected the 10.10 would install more or less like the 10.04
  installation.
  
+ WORKAROUND: Intalling 10.04 and upgrading to 10.10.
