[Launchpad Bug Tracker <357900@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

1) Version 9.04 beta of Ubuntu i386 (though this problem appears with any version of Linux I've tried)
3) I expect linux to install and run properly on an Epia-M6000 motherboard. (The windows 7 beta worked fine)
4) I successfully installed the 9.04 beta of Ubuntu on the machine, but for any window that is supposed to scroll, only a small portion of the window will scroll Moving the mouse over the unscrolled area sometimes causes it to update. Also if I try to run Aisle Riot, and play 3 deck spider, the computer will hang before the completion of the first game. This behavior is absolutely repeatable on every version of Linux I have successfully installed on this motherboard (some versions error out with some error message about cmov, others just hang during the install. I've successfully installed at least 4 versions of Linux).

My wild guess as to what is going on: This motherboard has an oddball
processor (Samuel II ?) I have read that it is almost a i686 but is
missing an instruction or two (cmov?). My guess is that the linux
installer is assuming this is a i686 and attempting to install an
improper version of the code. I know the motherboard is good since
Windows 7 will run without issues on it.
