Ubuntu :: Blank Screen On Bootup After Distorted Logo

Jul 4, 2010

I recently got a new laptop (Aspire 5741) and have installed ubuntu 10.4 on it. I have been very happy with the computer and OS. However the only problem I have had is that I am unable to change the screen brightness. Last night I though I found a fix. I cant remember the specific thing but it was something similar to this [URL]. On reboot the ubuntu logo came up and a few seconds later it showed a distorted ubuntu logo. After this it just goes to a black screen. I have tried booting into recovery fail proof graphics mode, and the problem still arises.

Ubuntu :: Boots Up Showing Logo - Then To A Blank Screen ?

Apr 8, 2010

I've had no problems out of my multi-boot setup.. at all, and now all of a sudden (after an update on ubuntu? my JoliCloud and Ubuntu seem to do the same thing.. they show the logo then go to a black screen, doing nothing afterwards. i was wanting to know how to get this working again.. this is an Acer aspire One 11.6in AO751h. it's using grub to boot into it. i used EasyBCD to get it to let me choose ubuntu from windows start menu and it takes me to grub and all works(well worked until some update?) well.. even my windows 7 boots up just fine...

Slackware :: 13.37 - Blank Screen On Bootup

Mar 11, 2011

I have a clean install of slackware 13.37, downloaded today from slackware64current. On boot, I get a black screen - not just black, but no video signal out of the video card, or at least nothing that the monitor recognizes. Fortunately, I can ssh into the box from another machine. If I do, I can startx and xfce starts up and appears as expected. lspci shows:

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 9714
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 6898

I have an onboard video chipset with a monitor connected to it, and an ATI 5970 in a pcie slot with a monitor also connected to it. xfce appears on the pcie card (the 5970) as expected, as this is (supposedly) the primary monitor, and the monitor connected to the onboard video output is blank - no signal, also as expected as I have not yet installed the ATI drivers. So the question is - how do I get the terminal output on bootup to appear on one of my monitors? I'm not sure where it is going, and this is out out of my area of expertise.

OpenSUSE Install :: Blank Screen & Mouse After Bootup

Jul 18, 2010

I just installed 11.3 on a Toshiba Satellite A305 laptop. After going through the install process it restarted (without a full reboot I believe) and spent a very long time going through a bunch of message. E.g. it spends about 10-15 minutes building java fonts, and warning me that Japanese/Chinese/Korean might not work in Java.About 20+ minutes after bootup it finishes with all the status messages (including a message that said it couldn't execute /usr/bin/cmp !?) and goes to a blank screen with a mouse sprite -- first a spinning circle, then a regular arrow sprite. So it's not a totally black screen, but all I have is the mouse sprite.

I let it sit there for over an hour.I think it was hitting the disk but nothing happened. I tried rebooting and it did the same thing.I tried setting the "nomodeset" boot parameter, which had helped someone with a similar problem no change.I tried it in failsafe mode no change.

Ubuntu :: "install" Or "try Without Install" Leads To Ubuntu Logo Screen With Dots Flashing Under - Blank Screen

Aug 10, 2011

1. Installed Ubuntu 11.04 32 bit for my 64 bit laptop to run alongside windows 7.

2. Installation worked, but had problems booting - it booted sometimes from the grub menu other times didn't

3. Found no solutions for problem so deleted grub and removed the ubuntu OS from disk management.

Since that time I've been attempting to install the long term support (version 10.04) for a while and nothing's happening. The button to "install" or "try without install" leads me to the ubuntu logo screen with the dots flashing under then a blank screen. The memory stick's light doesn't flash either hence it's not working. I've tried the 32 bit and 64 bit version, downloaded from multiple sources and converted the iso using multiple programs.

I then tried the 11.04 version again in 64 bit but that didn't work so I tried what I did in the beginning, the 32 bit version and it works. It feels a bit like after the first install my laptop only wants to install the 32bit 11.04 version and is a bit racist (can i say that?) to the other versions so completely rejects them. Why?

Is there any chance if I try to use a cd to boot that version and it may work from there?

And if I can't run 10.04 for some weird reason technical or w.e, can someone reccommend me another REALLY good version for a beginner which is easy to install and doesn't have too many problems.

Ubuntu Installation :: Blank Screen: 10.04, ATI Radeon 9550 / X Tries To Load Screen Just Goes Blank?

May 9, 2010

I am having the same problem, as soon as X tries to load my screen just goes blank. I have an ATI Radeon 9550. At first I tried switching between VGA and DVI as well but upon ruling that out, I switch to my on-board video card and that is working thus far, but I'm trying very hard to figure out a way to be able to switch back. Anyways I'll check back in later on if I have any new information I will post.

Ubuntu Installation :: Distorted Unresponsive Screen After Installing 10.04?

Dec 19, 2010

i wasn't sure where to post this, so if there's a better place, someone please more this thread. i just installed 10.04 64-bit desktop on a ~4 year old hp a1610n (pic below). it works great for about 20 seconds at which point the screen becomes distorted and unresponsive. i'm not entirely sure, but i think the problem didn't start until after i activated the (recommended) nvidia driver. its hard to say though since i set up that driver very soon after the install. here's a pic of the desktop: click me

Ubuntu :: Boot Screen - Logo Has Low Resolution And Is Big

Jul 3, 2010

Firstly when I first installed Ubuntu on my machine, the bootscreen logo was small and high resolution, and it looked nice, however as I started using Ubuntu I must have done something for it to change to large and low resolution.

I try the live cd again and that one is normal, so it must be my settings.. and also when I am shutting down, the screen shows some messages I can't read because it's kind of fast, and the messages are kind of low res too.

Ubuntu :: Screen Keeps Going Blank/flashing Blank?

May 17, 2010

When i use my computer (whether it's going online, typing, playing a flash game, or coding) I get these "Black Flashes" that are becoming longer and more frequent. A "Black Flash" is when my computer screen turns blank (but you can still see the backlight) and i have to press the NUMpad ENTER button, shake my mouse furiously, or click my mouse, which sometimes causes undesired actions, but gets me my screen back. sometimes the Black Flashes last a milisecond or 5 seconds or i have to hold the power button and restart because it won't come back on.

Specs:
Toshiba P205-S6337 Laptop
Ubuntu Karmic Koala
2.39 GB of RAM

Debian Multimedia :: Distorted And Defect Screen After Kernel Upgrade To 2.6.32-5?

Dec 24, 2010

OS Environment : Debian Squeeze, Gnome, Compiz, kernel 2.6.32-5 Hardwares : Pentium4, ATI Radeon 9600 AGP8x

After upgrading the kernel and restarted, I've been having an issue with the screen. After logged in through GDM, the screen starts distorting, creating small colorful object and blurry

Screenshots :

However, this problem does not exist on tty other than used by desktop ( tty1...tty6 is not affected ) And not in GDM too!!! My GDM shows up nicely, I let it there for hours and no distortion, no strange colors whatsoever.

KMS is enabled ( by default ) as I checked :
$ dmesg | grep drm
[ 5.373278] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
[ 5.782595] [drm] radeon kernel modesetting enabled.

Fedora X86/64bit :: 14 - Graphics Is Getting Distorted Whenever Move Windows Along The Screen

Mar 27, 2011

Graphics is getting distorted whenever I move windows along the screen. This happened soon after I installed KDE desktop and compiz fusion on my pc. I am having 1GB ATI MOBILITY RADEON HD 54 graphics card (Seems like that was the problem). The first fix that I tried: Installed qt-devel compat-libstdc++-33 and then created an xorg.conf file by installing system-config-display and edited the file to include radeon under drivers then restarted --> this didnt work Compiled ATI drivers for linux ---> this also dint work However, I can view the o/p clearly when I type glxgears Seems like the issue is with this. But I donno how to change this

glxinfo | grep direct -i
glxinfo | grep OpenGL -i

When I run the above command, the o/p includes direct rendering: yes" and also various OpenGL information concerning for "Mesa" but not for "ATI Technologies" I am facing this issue on KDE as well as Gnome.. In KDE, if I check activate Desktop graphics then I would get automatically logged out. In gnome if I select "Desktop Effects" then I get a message "3D acceleration not supported".

Ubuntu :: Macbuntu - Apple Logo On Login Screen?

Apr 16, 2011

However, I don't like using Apple's logo, it seems somewhat silly to me, I'm only interested in the overall appearence. During the installation, I chose the Ubuntu logo wherever I was asked, but it seems I didn't have a choice for the login screen.How can I remove that bitten apple?I found that I can set a new logo in Ubuntu Tweak, but I have no idea where to find the original Ubuntu logo file.

Debian :: Distorted Screen Resolution On HP 2133 Mini-Note (KX869AT)

Mar 19, 2010

I just installed Debian (lenny) on my HP 2133 Mini-Note (KX869AT). I've managed to get everything working, even the Broadcom wireless adapter, but the display is too large for the actual screen size. To get the screen to a more manageable resolution, I did copy the xorg.conf file of another HP 2133 Mini-Note user. (It was probably a different model; there are several versions of the HP 2133, hence the model number in the description.) Icons and things hide off-screen. The text on the GNOME panel is quite large.

Ubuntu :: Bootup Usually To Frozen Screen

Dec 30, 2010

Have installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a couple of Dell Inspiron 2650 laptops (both 512M memory) and when they run, they're great, but they only successfully boot up maybe 10% of the attempts. Most of the time, the touchpad and keyboard are inoperative, but I recall sometimes the enter key gets me past my user Id to input password. Trying to enter recovery mode isn't any better, but once into recovery, I'll boot up in safe graphics, but it is probably only running because it succeeded in entering recovery, anyways. I have elected to to boot up in safe graphics, but they still both freeze. No error messages, just a frozen background/icons screen.

Ubuntu has searched the hardware and reports there's nothing requiring proprietary drivers installed.

After reading all the other problems posted, I figure my laptops are doing pretty darn good, but it sure would be nice not to set around starting up and shutting down, over and over.

Ubuntu Installation :: Install 10.04 Desktop But The Screen Goes Black After - Dots - Logo ?

Sep 14, 2010

Trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 desktop (amd64) on this brand new system:

I connected the Dell ST2410 24" Full HD Widescreen LCD to the HDMI port on the ATI card and Windows 7 boots up just fine.

So then I put in the "ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso" CD in drive and reboot the system. I see the Ubuntu logo with the dots for a while and then the LCD goes black. The LCD reports that there is no signal from the system. The power light in front of the LCD goes from white to amber. The keyboard stops responding.

I power off everything, remove the Ubuntu CD and reboot the system and it works fine again with Windows 7.

The CD has no problems. At boot time, I checked it for defects and it reports no errors. At boot time, I used this same CD to check the system for memory errors. No memory errors. I used the same CD to install Ubuntu on other systems and had no problems.

The 16X DVDRW Drive has no problems. In Windows 7 it can play CDs and DVDs.
