Note: I scanned the comments above and the vast majority were in fact configurations with ATI graphics. There were two comments referring to nVidia graphics cards, but in both cases the users could here the startup music; this indicates that it is NOT the same problem.
I concur with the assessment that this is a configuration issue between the LiveCD and a large number of Radeon cards. -Scott -- Install 6:10 Failure: Black screen at Live Desktop Stage https://launchpad.net/bugs/67487 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
