if you use a separate monitor with the T61p and ubuntu, it will install and then after reboot, things will work fine -- Ubuntu 7.10 fails to install on ThinkPad T61p https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183582 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The CD has been checked. It is error-free.

[Bug 183582] Re: Ubuntu 7.10 fails to install on ThinkPad T61p
I have a T61 (nvidia 140M), and I also get a black screen when booting the live cd, but after a _long_ wait I finally get the live desktop, and can install. The problem with black screen during boot is also present after installation of ubuntu, the first thing i see (after grub) is the nvidia logo.

I finally got Ubuntu to install on my Thinkpad T61p -- but only using the Alternate CD. I have read about the long wait, but no one seems to say exactly how long is long. Several times I waited over two hours for the black screen to go away and it never did. The text-based install is so quick and easy that this is all I use now. Now that I have the issues figured out, I can install Ubuntu from the Alternate CD on my ThinkPad T61p very easily.
