I've messed around with both Kubuntu and Ubuntu before on my laptop, they worked fine i might want to add first. Now i'm attempting to run the live version of Kubuntu on the PC, but as soon as i hit the desktop, i instantly hang. The mouse moves but nothing else works. Similar thing happens on the Ubuntu CD and i haven't got any clue why.
Did a slight search on the forums on possibilities and i think one of them might be that i'm using an ATi Radeon X800 Pro. Some issues with video drivers perhaps? It might be the case as i had to play around with the VGA resolution before i could get to desktop (Which just crashes anyway), if not i'd be stuck without any display at all...
Rather frustrated here, and pretty new at linux so it doesn't really help much haha >.> I've got the Fiesty Fawn v7.04 64 bit and v6.01 Edgy i think of Ubuntu, 32 bit. Using a 64 bit system so that shouldn't be an issue (AMD Athlon 64 3000+)
Any insight into this? :X
