-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Sometimes ubuntu can do funky things with certain hardware. I can't even run it on my laptop because everything in it is Intel based. I'm not sure I have an answer for you, but to give me and others a better idea of what type of hardware you're running, post the output of 'lspci' as root. We can make better suggestions once we know the hardware you're dealing with.
