I have the same problem with a dv6000us laptop. I had feisty running 'ok,' it would boot about half the times, and decided to upgrade to gutsy to see if the problems would stop. With gutsy my broadcom card 'dissapeared' and did not show up on the lspci but everything else seemed to work, so I opted to install the 64bit tribe 5. This has been nothing but a headache and the laptop will at the most boot to a command line. I've read that this might be a problem with the hwclock (most of the times the system locks up after checking the clock), and have just found a temporary fix which I will try later since I had to get a hold of a windows pc first because my laptop is decomissioned...
The funny thing is that knoppix will boot without a hitch, and feisty seemed to boot ok. Oh, and when the gutsy install has worked (I've installed it about 5 times with different degrees of success) and let me into the gui, the updates completely crashed the system, so hopefully in the final version this will stop happening, Jack -- HP Pavilion dv6103eu laptop - all Ubuntu versions gets frozen during X startup until I specify "noapic" boot option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
