What make/model is your laptop? (These problems are often hardware related.) Is this the first time you have installed Ubuntu on it? Or was it an upgrade? If not an upgrade, how did you install it? If you do Ctrl-Alt-1, do you get a console? It would be a good idea to post this (with the sort of details above) on https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu Tony -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
