Comment 37 for bug 464591

I've tried to run three live 9.10 CDs which I burnt in the last 24 hrs, Ubuntu 32 bit Desktop, Ubuntu UNR or Xubuntu all end up with the same flickering screen as described by others here. I want run a live CD to install Ubuntu UNR on USB flash memory. I am able to successfully run a live CD of Hardy Heron 8.10 on my Desktop and also run 9.10 Ubuntu on my hard drive updated from the previous version. Video is a GeForce 6600 GT.

With 9.10 live CD I'm stuck as I cannot enter any data on a flashing screen's command line. As suggested above, next I'm going to see what happens if I turn off my monitor when it's flashing and wait a while before turning it back on to see if things have settled. I just want to be able run the live CD i do not need to install it on my hard drive, I have 9.10 there already.
