9.04 will not run on a Gigabyte ma790x-UD4P motherboard, guess I will have to wait for 2.3 or later.
9.10 alpha 2 runs good.
Nvidia let me down, a GTX275 is not the card for Ubuntu.

As long as I intend to run Linux, I will never make another hardware purchase without first using google to see what works :lol: It's just not worth the trouble for me when you can buy something that you know will work :!:

It may be possible to make it run. You may just need to pass some special options to the kernel at boot time. One way to find possible causes to boot issues is to hit f6 then remove "quiet splash" this will make it boot w/o the splash screen. You will see a bunch of text scroll across the screen. Look for anything that says "fail" or "error".

This may also work. But just not with the default opensource driver. You may have to use the proprietory driver from nvidia (this driver cant be included by defaulty for licensing reasons).

There is a post somewhere here on the form on booting to a txt prompt them installing the driver from nvidia (in the live cd invironment) then running the install routine. Of course the driver would need reinstalled after you boot to the newly installed system. I know the post is here but i cant seem to find it at the moment.

EDIT

Found it

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=493

It talks about ati but the same can be done for envy since envy can be used to install either ati or nvidia drivers.

Hope this helps.

Thats what i was thinking to. The one i found was by coldfusion. I could swear there is a different one though. I thought there was one directly pertaining to nvidia.

Obviously, the thrust of your main point is true.

But, Linux needs so damn much time to even work properly that all the googling becomes an overload for a lot of people. Ubuntu seems to have a lot of bugs but it has captured so much of the market that websites like "get deb" and all of the added repositories out there are addicting, so I stick with it.

For example, and related to "google can be your friend", I am having continual problems with no sound due to pulseaudio with both my Ultimate Edition 2.2 32-bit and 64-bit.

If I want to spend hours getting Ubuntu to play sound like my XP installation ALWAYS will I can google for it, but I am tired of doing so. The answers to issues with Linux are often contradictory, even.
