I can't get it (either i386 or AMD 64 versions) to run on my laptop or desktop machines. Both have nVidia video cards. It will only boot the live CD in "safe video" mode and then after the installation completes and upon reboot, in the case of the laptop (nVidia 6150), the screen just morphs into a bunch of smeared colors and the desktop machine (nVidia 6200), I get to the login screen, log in and it drops me to command line as says something about it can't start the desktop or some such error message. I've been running SimplyMepis, Sabayon, and all versions of Xandros on the laptop and Xandros Professional and KnoppMyth on the desktop machine, all without incident. Ed
