ikonizer Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I just did a full update using Ubuntu's built-in updater, and upon trying to boot to the new kernel, my screen turns to the normal bright orange color, as it normally does before the login screen shows up, but the it just sits there and refuses to continue booting. Toshiba L305D (Laptop) AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-60 3GB RAM ATI X1250 Integrated 1280x800 resolution / 60Hz Any ideas? I can still boot into the previous version without issue.

Kev_B Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I know! Check your BIOS and see if there are any x64 settings. Have you consulted the Ubuntu Forums yet? They're helpful too :) (I spend a good bit of time there too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redvamp128 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) You should be able to at the grub menu select the prior kernel.... from there you should be able to diagnose the problem. also check for a bug at launchpad- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu that and should you not find your bug-- please don't forget to report it-- so that others can help you work the issues out.

UKer Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Have you tried leaving the system for a few minutes - my system had a problem where it seemed to freeze, but then after a few mins it loaded. Turned out I needed to pass some additional perameters when booting to avoid this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
