Comment 8 for bug 367025

This is a bigger problem, the system won't even boot with the card in place.
The problem is reproduceable with the 10.04 Live CD. It boots without the card but hangs with the card. I changed the slot for the card too to see if I could have any influence on IRQs but the perceived behaviour is the same.

With the Live CD the boot gets to the Ubuntu screen with the dots under it and stops with five red dots on the 5th iteration I believe. I don't know if the dots mean anything or if they're just elapsed time. The processor is a Celeron so it doesn't boot very quickly. There's only 512MB of memory but I don't see why that makes any difference.

With th installed system the screen displays a soft hang message which repeats after a minute or two.
