In trying to solve a problem with recording sound using the built in
mic on my Thinkpad T21, I thought I'd give the latest "flight" of
Ubuntu a try.
I burned the Flight 5 Ubuntu CD and went through the install to the
point where the CD was ejected and the system rebooted. Everything
seemed OK up to that point.
When the system rebooted, I saw the graphical boot stuff with the
messages scrolling on the brown screen under the Ubuntu logo. Then
the screen went blank except for a non-blinking cursor in the top left
of the screen, then I heard the tom-tom drum sound that usually
accompanies the opening of the logon screen ... and that's it.
The system hung with the blank screen there and nothing else
happening. The system responds to pings, but does not visibly respond
to any keyboard input (e.g. trying to select other ttys).
Help/guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Bruce
