(Get the code!)
I get the same problem with Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2 LiveCD. When just starting the LiveCD, after the boot screen the screen goes black. The CD continues to load stuff and then the startup sound plays. Then nothing happens. When pressing the shutdown key of the laptop the LiveCD begins to spin. When pressing Enter, the LiveCD is ejected, when pressing enter again, the laptop shuts down.
Tried also:
- to remove the 'quiet splash --' options, but got the same results;
- to remove the 'quiet splash --' options and added 'vga=771' option, but got the same results;
- to remove the 'quiet splash --' options and added 'nomodeset', this worked and I got to the desktop at 800x600.
Looks like the graphics driver of the LiveCD is not working with the nvidia quadro nvs 3100m card or something...
If you need more information, let me know.
