Unable to install Ubuntu (breezy, dapper, or edgy) on compaq presario V5000 - PCI cannot allocate resource for region 7, 8, 0

[brandon lovejoy]

   I have been unable to install Ubuntu (breezy, dapper or edgy) on my hp/compaq presario V5000. Also the Breezy Live CD I have seems to fail for the same reason.

   After I start the install it hangs up with a screen that reads:

[17179570.824000] PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c.0
[17179570.824000] PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:1c.0

[17179570.824000] PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 0000:00:00.0

   Where do i go from here? any help greatly appreciated.

   Thanks, brandon
