Oh how pissed I am right now.. So I make it short.
I installed the new Kubuntu just this morning. It installed just fine. Then I booted the first time and everything worked just fine. I installed Chromium Browser and tested some 720p clips and noticed that they were not GPU accelerated. Not a big deal. Then I just changed the Metric system on from KDE Regional settings, so that CPU temperature widget would show temps in Celsius format.. And then --> Restart System.
And it has been black screen since then! Not even BIOS screen shows up anymore and I've tried with different monitors and with both DVI connections and nothing... Black screen and monitors go to sleep. No signal from the GPU what so ever
The computer
- AMD x2 5000+ cpu
- Nvidia 9600GT passive cooled silent model
! EDIT EDIT EDIT !
Now I took my HDD off and I got the BIOS screen back. Maybe it is not broken, this is mysterious... I contiunue testing wtf is wrong with my machine?
Now it is booting again and everything is working... Maybe my old machine is dying, this is weird stuff.
But the issue is not Ubuntu specific I over reacted and this thread can be DELETED now! Sorry about this.
PS. Nvidia Settings tells me that GPU temp = 42 celcius and AMD X2 5000+ cpu temp = 30 Celcius when idling so temps are brilliant
