[Bug 464591] Re: upgrade breaks graphic drivers and x, preventing login or startx

 

I've tried to run three live 9.10 CDs which I burnt in the last 24 hrs,
Ubuntu 32 bit Desktop, Ubuntu UNR or Xubuntu all end up with the same
flickering screen as described by others here. I want run a live CD to
install Ubuntu UNR on USB flash memory. I am able to successfully run a
live CD of Hardy Heron 8.10 on my Desktop and also run 9.10 Ubuntu on my
hard drive updated from the previous version. Video is a GeForce 6600
GT.

With 9.10 live CD I'm stuck as I cannot enter any data on a flashing
screen's command line. As suggested above, next I'm going to see what
happens if I turn off my monitor when it's flashing and wait a while
before turning it back on to see if things have settled. I just want to
be able run the live CD i do not need to install it on my hard drive, I
have 9.10 there already.
