Hi kai, You have to hit the ESC key a lot sooner, just after your BIOS finished and just before the kernel is loaded into memory. You only have 3 seconds to interrupt the boot process.
If all else fails: boot with the live CD, you will see a drive labeled 'disk' on your Desktop. So far so good. If this worked, open a terminal (applications->accessories) and type: sudo su Now you're root. type: echo "#these lines can be removed in the official hardy release" >>/media/disk/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist echo blacklist saa7134 >>/media/disk/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist echo blacklist saa7134_dvb >>/media/disk/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist Now you can shutdown, remove the live CD and reboot and all should work. -- 2.6.24-15-generic: saa7134-alsa makes HAL to fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212271 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
