[Bug 572763] [NEW] Black screen at start up in 10.04

[Paul Sanders]

Public bug reported:

i am having a problem with the final release of 32 bit Lucid.  When I
try to use the desktop installer I get the Ubuntu logo and then the
screen goes black.  I tried using the alternate installer and was able
to install, however I get the same black screen when Ubuntu tries to
boot. The computer is a old Dell Inspiron 700m with a Intel video card,
and it ran perfectly with 9.10. I know that my CD was fine because I
used it on another computer and the install went fine.

I have not even been able to get to a command line so far to get more
information so sorry for not providing much. If someone can tell me how
I can get to a command line and any information needed I am happy to
provide it.
