Hello there,
Could anyone of you give me an explanation or a solution for the
following problem. After a system fault provoked by a programming
error in a free Antivirus scanner, I tried to install Kubuntu 8.10.
In the past I've been using Fedora, Suse and finally I became an
adept of (K)Ubuntu. I started with V6.06 and gradually went on
until that fatal day a few weeks ago when everything went wrong.
I couldn't load the new version of Ubuntu. After starting the
DVD the system freezed completely. The only clue I've got were
a few vague error Messages about ACPI (what is that?).
I 've tried everything possible to solve this problem but no
result. I even bought a new PC!!!! and surprise the new system
did the same errors. However, the MS XP-part functions very well!
On two desktops I had the same problems a short description follows.
1° Board MSI with Pentium III and Intel advanced chipset for sound
and graphics. 1Gb memory. Harddisk 80Gb. V2.0 USB ports. 1DVD
Reader/writer. 1 CD ROM Reader/writer. Video flatscreen Samsung
Sync Master 940NW. Licensed Win XP and Kubuntu 7.10 dual boot.
2° Board Gigabyte S-Series Supports AMD Socket AM2.
GA-MA69VM-S2 Athlon 64 X2 5200. LAN 10/100/100. Sound
Realtec 883 5.1. DDR II 3GB (800Mhz).HD 320Gb SATA II. USB 2.0
1 DVD READER/WRITER
The display and software are the same on both systems.
There I am with no operational LINUX at all. I'm really desperate.
