Bug Description
Karmic 9.10 release live cd will not boot up to graphics. Screen flickers with text only - typing is nearly impossible (very delayed) so I cannot get outputs for the commands requested in the guidelines. I suspect that it is a problem with nVidia and ATI cards, as I have an Intel graphics laptop that works fine.
My non-working system specs:
Dell XPS Desktop
3.0 GHz hyperthead (not DuoCore)
2GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 7600 GS

Hi awong,
This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http:// cdimage. ubuntu. com/releases/ .
If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) . It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.
apport-collect -p linux 481152
Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
