You can then access /var/log to take a look in the logs. The Xorg logs may have something, personally I dont understand those logs much myself, but someone on here or the ubuntuforums will be able to help. Also running "sudo lshw" will give useful output on hardware if you get to the command line. > I wish I could give you more information, but I honestly can't, that > is all that happens.

How does that work? Mark
