Bug Description

Hello,

I do not know if this is the appropriate place to provide this information but come on!

Since the first version of Ubuntu-Genome I've been installing the alpha and beta versions of the distribution in an attempt to report bugs I find along the way. This time, with vivid, I'm not able to install.

I have a Sony Vaio SVS151290X, which currently runs Ubuntu-Gnome Utopic. To try to install vivid, I downloaded the iso images (verified with MD5 (Firefox + downthemall)) from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/daily-live/current/ ... I tried to release the days January 30 and February 5, 2015, I burned the images to a USB stick with the "dd" and, in both cases, I got the same failure, that is, after booting I opt for "experience ubuntu ", then the screen flashes and turns black, then I run Ctrl + Alt + F1 and sudo shutdown -h now ... then the shutdown process freezes and I am forced to turn off the computer by pressing the power button .

I searched the Internet some reference to Vivid installation problems on Sony Vaio, but did not find consistent information.

I know that the alpha version is very "fragile" yet, so I'll wait for the Beta to make another attempt.

It is, then, the information!

Sincerely Yours

Well, when the Vivid Beta 1 came out I downloaded the new image and installed without any problems on my notebook ... So I'm considering this issue as resolved.

Thank U!
