I get the same problem on my laptop, no extra monitors. On the first try to boot from the live cd (Beta 2, downloaded an hour ago), I reached the first "choose your language" window, clicked on "try ubuntu", and then the screen froze with a bunch of black and white lines. Had to manually power down, and then got this message (among other things):
GLIb-WARNING **: getpwid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)
On my next tries, I only got a blank white box where the language window should be. Had to manually power down again, and got the same message. My computer: Acer Travelmate 2450 laptop with an ATI Mobility Xpress 200M graphics card.
I hope this can be solved, by the way my ubuntu experience is going, I might just be on Jaunty for the rest of my life.
