    ubuntu 10.4 with added kubuntu 10.4 booting system woes

    Hi all Kubuntu 10.4 users,
    Originally I installed Ubuntu 10.4 with out problems, then I added the Kubuntu desktiop with apt-get.
    No problems so far,
    After reboot of the machine the initial screen crashes totally. Only some horizontal lines . Another reboot into the rescue system
    shows me that both Ubuntu and Kubuntu can be used alternatively.
    Then I added to the bootloader the option vga=771 at the end of the booting parameters.

    At next reboot the screen goes black again and there is the same crash it seems. I waited and after about one minute suddenly
    the kubuntu logo appears and at the kubuntu login screen I can choose Kubuntu or Ubuntu and there are no more hitches so far.


    kubuntu is the only one.

    Welcome to KFN. Noticed your avatar comment: "using Linux for 25 years." You might want to correct that, given that Linus Torvalds didn't develop the Linux Kernel until 1991.
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.
    Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.
