Hi, this solution works fine for me (Ubuntu Desktop 11.10 x86): 1 - clean install (from live CD) * no download updates during setup * no install 3rd party software during setup
2 - before rebooting PC after setup, run ctrl+alt+T * sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt * sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev * sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/pts * sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc * sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys * sudo mount --bind /etc /mnt/etc * sudo mount --bind /usr /mnt/usr * sudo chroot /mnt 3 - che in the chroot terminal that only the nvidia-common are installed: dpkg -l |grep nvidia 4 - if Yes, reboot PC else remove nvidia package and leave only the nvidia-common 5 - the 1st boot will work fine; at the login screen run ctrl+alt+Fn 6- in the teminal: * sudo apt-get install -f * sudo dpkg --configure -a if it's all ok, do: * sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau * sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia* * sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get autoremove * sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-common && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current * sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf* * sudo nvidia-xconfig * sudo nano /etc/default/grub edit this and save: GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT="" 7- * sudo apt-get install --reinstall plymouth * sudo update-grub2 * sudo update-initramfs -u * sudo reboot 8 - now, you can try to boot s.o. from the kernel 3.0.0.14-pae 9 - if fail, reboot and select in grub > previous version the kernel 3.0.0.12 when the kernel load stop and seems to fail, press alt-ctrl+Fn and reply from "7" I hope that this work for everybody ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661248 Title: PCI Race Condition with COMPAL FL90 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/system76/+bug/661248/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
