[Bug 1085548] Re: [Regression] cannot boot since kernel 3.2.0.34

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
** Description changed:

  Running Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS under kernel 3.2.0-33....after updating to new 3.2.0-34 kernel and rebooting, I got an error message
  stating that my PC could only operate in "low graphics mode"....I answered OK and then it went to a screen with 4 options...I tried
  all 4 options without any success...it would not boot and just hung up...
  
  I managed to get running with a live CD of 10.04.1 LTS so I could get onto the Forums to get help...at the suggestion of one responder I managed to get back to the working 3.2.0-33 kernel...he then suggested that I try the new 3.7.0--rc7 kernel for
  raring ringtail to see if the bug was there ...it appears to be there also...
  
  I suspect the problem to be associated with my Nvidia graphics card or
  driver not being compatible with the new kernels...
