Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Lucid Beta2 (live CD) / Dell Inspiron 1520 / GeForce 8400M GS
After choosing the 'Try Ubuntu without changes on the system', I got for 1-2 seconds a black screen terminal (only the cursor was visible), after that a weird screen and finally sort of a grey screen. I've attached the last two screen images.
It switched between terminals, but the display didn't change at all. For instance, ctrl+alt+f2, "sudo reboot", enter, enter = reboots the system. I found it odd since I thought the terminals didn't use the noveau driver.
"blacklist=vga16fb nouveau.noaccel=1" params didn't work, however the "nouveau.

I've just tried the latest live-cd daily build (16-Apr-2010) and the bug isn't fixed.
