Bug Description

I try to boot Ubuntu 7.10 AMD64 Live CD. If I make it with default settings after message "Loading Linux kernel" screen turn off and LEDs Caps Lock and Scroll Lock are flashing. Same effect if selected "Safe graphics mode". I can't see any errors or diagnostics messages on screen.

But if change boot option "splash" to "nosplash" all works fine.

Video card ATI X800GTO, LCD monitor BENQ 991 (1280x1024).
