I have tried Ubuntu 8.04 for 32 bit and AMD64, and every few days try the latest alpha or daily build of 8.10 for AMD64 and 32 bit...nothing has worked yet.
This is a an ASUS M51 Series M51TA-X2 NoteBook with AMD Turion X2 Ultra ZM-82(2.20GHz) 15.4" Wide XGA+ 4GB Memory 250GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 Here is where it was purchased, with some specifications available: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220349 Here are some threads on ubuntuforums that relate to this machine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=899327 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=909820 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=897843 The display will go blank shortly after choosing to "try ubuntu without changing my computer" or trying to go into the install process from the CD or DVD (I've tried both). I understand that this machine has *both* integrated graphics with an ATI 3200 and another graphics system based on the ATI 3650 for higher performance, when desired. I do not know if the problem is with video drivers or support of some other elements, or a combination thereof. We were able to do an install using virtualbox on top of Windows Vista on this very same machine. It works, but that is not an ideal setup...if anything, I would prefer the opposite or no Windows at all. -- ati driver gives a white screen on xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
