Bug Description
Hi
Currently using 7.04, decided to try out 7.10 on a none production machine. Update doesn't work for me due to some problems documented elsewhere, so I downloaded the Tribe 4 iso from Ubuntu.
It seemingly loads fine in LiveCD mode until you get to the splash screen. "ubuntu" user tries to auto login, at which point the screen flickers to the bootscript shell, and then back to the login screen which once again tries to autologin. (I believe this is an X restart, not sure how to check)
I am relatively new to linux so if you want logs, i will need advice in how to get them since I cant login.
Both failsafe options give the same error btw,
Adam
To post a comment you must log in.
launching the live cd in the safe graphics mode seeminly works...this is on a 2d card machine so maybe the normal mode is defaulting to 3d?
