Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. I have classified this bug as a bug in linux-source-2.6.22.
Actually, I hesitate(d) between this and Casper, because you get quite long in the booting process.

I suppose this is the Live CD for PC (Intel x86) desktop CD
that is found on: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-3/
Or is it Kubuntu?

I find it surprising that you can't switch to console.
By using Ctrl-Alt-F1 or Ctrl-Alt-F2 ? (suppose to come back to graphics window with Ctrl-Alt-F7)

The other trick you could try is, before pressing Enter when booting with CD, press F6
and remove 'quiet splash' before the '--', then press Enter. This MAY help to see error
messages while booting.

Basically, what I hope to do is going to console and get the files requested for a kernel bug.
We normally ask for it with:
"Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:
1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report.
3. Please run the command "sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report.

For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at [WWW] http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies. Thanks in advance!" but until you can get these files and save them somewhere for retrieving them later with a working GUI and Internet access, we may have to work a bit.
