Public bug reported:
Just bought a new Dell XPS M1530, (some relevant specs below) tried
starting up a Live CD of Hardy beta, (AMD64 - tested for defects and
passed on another computer). When trying to startup the Live CD and/or
test CD for defects, goes black when splash screen should come up,
(presuming that's an issue with the video card, but have had to work
around that before - not good for further adoption of Ubuntu, but fine
for me). Edited the boot line to nosplash, and pretty much right after
the splash screen would start, got the below:
usb 1-1: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/all
usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -71
and that's pretty much it. The CD still sounds like it's trying to do
something, but nothing happens for at least 5 mins, (after which, I
forced shutdown).
One time, (and only one time) it threw a different, longer error, (4-5
lines, can't seem to replicate - keep just getting the above now).
Pressed the power button, which seemed to get it to keep trying to load,
(has not exhibited such behavior since). Eventually it loaded up the
GDM, but the touchpad was nigh unto psychotic - whipping back, forth, up
and down, opening windows, moving taskbars, etc. Will file a second bug
for the touchpad behavior, just including here for both the idea of the
2nd error, as well as pushing the power button acting as an
Ignore/Continue.
