<body>it didnt give me an option to install a prop driver,. infact i never =
even got to that stage. I got to the main menu. One normal "install ubuntu =
or run live CD" it starts loading. The little box fills up with the little =
orange color showing progress.. then then the screen goes blank and a blue =
screen appears....i scroll down and it mentions something about no monitor =
deteced and/or something about graphical interface and then it states GDM w=
ill restart!!!<BR>
<BR>
and it goes into text mode...something im not familiar with so i just have =
to restart ! <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>
