[Bug 512518] Re: Ubuntu 9.10 Live CD hangs X soon after gnome is displayed

[Mike Fairbank]

I've just made a proper install of ubuntu onto a dual boot partition of
my harddrive.  This will enable me to apply upgrades more easily.

So I've done that, and then run it (under acpi=off, since that's all I
can do to prevent this problem), and fetched all the latest ubuntu
updates for Karmic.  This has brought the kernel version upto 2.6.31-20
(generic), however that does not fix my problem - I still have to run
under acpi=off.

Acpi=off makes the computer work well, and completely prevents this bug,
but it seems to knock out certain functionality such as wireless
internet and sound, so it's not a long-term solution for me.

I would welcome any advice or suggestions.
