When loading the Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex Alpha 6 Live Cd, the "Start or Install Ubuntu" screen displays as normal. The Ubuntu loading screen then comes up and the loading bar is filled normally by an orange fill bar. In Alpha 5, the screen was black and an Ubuntu startup noise played. Pressing ctrl+alt+Backspace caused a logout and the sound to play again, but still no image. In Alpha 6 , the mouse cursor appears, but no sound is heard. I can move the mouse freely, but ctrl+alt+backspace pressed does not lead to any sounds. |

Today I tried to install Ubuntu 8.10 on the Dell Optiplex GX260 that has been plagued with the described problems. Using the 8.10 Beta LiveCD, I select the second option from the CD menu, "Install Ubuntu". This brings up the new wallpaper with the Intstaller and Partitioner. Mouse support and keyboard work as they should. Upon completion of the installation, Ubuntu Restarts and goes in to the login window. Here is where the success ends.
Using GNOME, a black background with a mouse cursor appears. The mouse is usable. The keyboard will not respond. Using a failsafe GNOME, a brown background appears. Again, the I/O devices work the same.
In recovery mode, or from a failsafe terminal, commands can be input, but I do not know what to do at this point.
Today's test also included a trial installation of Kubuntu, but that never succeeded in getting past the KDE 4.1 loading screen. A snazzy background with a fancy box in the center appears and displays a HDD. The screen then flickers into forever. This is a separtate bug that may be related. |
