I tried with no 'splash' option, with 'splash' but without 'nomodeset', and with 'splash' and with 'nomodeset'. In all three cases I got the same result: screen flashing on and off, and eventually the start-up sound.
If I blind-type the right keys to get the computer to shut down, and let it restart into Windows 7, the screen remains black after Windows starts up. I have to hibernate and wake the computer for the display to light up. I also get the black screen if I use the Live CD's "check disk" option. -- lucid beta 2 live shows black screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557744 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
