1.08 only shows the purple ubuntu screen, launcher does not launch x does not launch.

jnetman1:
Try this:


* Reboot the computer and press ESC immediately after your computer manufacturer's splash screen disappears (you should see a flashing cursor in the top left corner for a few seconds - press the escape key within 3 seconds to view the menu.)
* Select "Normal Boot" from the menu (but don't press enter) and press the "e" key on your keyboard
* Navigate to the end of the line that starts with "linux" using your arrow keys and add "nomodeset" (without the quotes) to the end of the line.
* Press ctrl+x to boot.
If that works, let me know and I'll tell you how to make it permanent.

tech2learn:
no success - should there be a space before nomodeset?  I did put one space

Not finding the specs for this device anywhere. Do you know what video card it has in it? Can you point me to a web site that lists what the device is?

A couple of users have reported that their downloads of the image file from Google were incomplete, which might be the case here. Make sure the download file is 2Gb in size.
