Public bug reported: I have a new Samsung R560 Aura laptop. It works fine with any 32 Bit Ubuntu Live CD (both 8.04 as well as 8.10), but it does not work with any 64 Bit LiveCD. I tried 8.04 as well as 8.10 Alpha 4. I also checked the forums for suggestions on similar behavious, but all in vain until know.
The phenomenon is this: The LiveCD boots. I can choose the language and any other settings. But as soon as I choose either "Try Ubuntu" or also "Install", it loads the kernel. After that, the screen is going dark and the laptop reboots. Again, this behaviour is specific to the 64 Bit version, while there is no problem with the 32 Bit ones of the same releases. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Laptop Reboots when trying to start LiveCD or Install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260868 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
