Hi
Pascal,
Thanks for the tips. I got the laptop, and downloaded Ubuntu 7.1
for 64 bit processors. My laptop is a Copmaq Presario 3611AU, here are the
specs:
AMD Athlon 64 1.8Ghz
14.1" Widescreen 1280*800
120GB HDD,
1.5GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 7150m graphics card with shared memory
When I
boot from the Ubuntu 7.1 LiveCD/Installer, everything works fine ( I select
install, the 1st option on the menu ), and then it says that the graphics card
and monitor were not detected, and that it's running in low res mode. If I
select ignore problem and continue, the laptop freezes, and sometimes it just
keeps giving the bcm43xx error again and again. Nothing happens when I select
the graphics driver for nVidia 7 series card too. Anyone experienced these
problems? I googled, and get a lots of hits, but nothing conclusive
yet...
Thanks in advance,
Uttam
