note: all previous tests were done using the nvidia card connected via S-VIDEO output to a TV screen.
Testing with the 20091009.1 daily-live iso image (amd64), I tried to boot into the livecd environment using the integrated Intel VGA graphics on the motherboard and a standard monitor. After startup, it showed the small white ubuntu logo in the middle of the screen while loading and then successfully booted into the livecd environment. I then tested with the VGA graphics port on the nvidia card connected to a standard monitor. After startup, it had a blank/black screen (no white ubuntu logo) while loading but then successfully booted into the livecd environment. On this test, the graphics output didn't appear until it was showing the brown Ubuntu splash screen with the horizontal loading/status indicator. I tested again with the S-VIDEO output connected to the TV screen and it was as originally reported. After selecting to boot into the LiveCD environment from the initial boot screen the graphics output turned blank/black and didn't show anything. I could then press the power button on the computer case once and it shutdown and ejected the CD like normal (still no graphics output while doing this). -- 9.10 beta fails to boot into LiveCD (flashing text on beta/straight black on later images) - black screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444395 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
