You have been subscribed to a public bug:
1) Version 9.04 beta of Ubuntu i386 (though this problem appears with any
version of Linux I've tried)
3) I expect linux to install and run properly on an Epia-M6000 motherboard.
(The windows 7 beta worked fine)
4) I successfully installed the 9.04 beta of Ubuntu on the machine, but for any
window that is supposed to scroll, only a small portion of the window will
scroll Moving the mouse over the unscrolled area sometimes causes it to update.
Also if I try to run Aisle Riot, and play 3 deck spider, the computer will hang
before the completion of the first game. This behavior is absolutely repeatable
on every version of Linux I have successfully installed on this motherboard
(some versions error out with some error message about cmov, others just hang
during the install. I've successfully installed at least 4 versions of Linux).
My wild guess as to what is going on: This motherboard has an oddball
processor (Samuel II ?) I have read that it is almost a i686 but is
missing an instruction or two (cmov?). My guess is that the linux
installer is assuming this is a i686 and attempting to install an
improper version of the code. I know the motherboard is good since
Windows 7 will run without issues on it.
