Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I had a doubt about the nVidia card, so I changed it to an ATI 9600 earlier and subsequently reached the AV Wizard.
Having gone through the wizard, a message was displayed that some automated setup would run for approximately 15 minutes.

However, during the auto process, the following message was displayed:

Orbiter failed to load the transparency. Please check if the transparency manager is running.

Unfortunately, now the set-up won't proceed, but I can't see how to turn on the transparency manager.

Suggestions please...

Thanks.

Hi,

I've installed the AMD64 bit version of Linux MCE from DVD, which took just under an hour, however, when I re-booted as requested, although the Kubuntu start-up screen did its thing, the screen subsequently went black.
There was no log-in window and no way to recover.  The PC remains ON.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

I'm assuming that my graphics card is supported, since I could see the blue Kubuntu boot-up bar.  The only potential problem I could see was the following message (when using one of the recovery options to start, so I could see what was happening during boot-up): "mounting local filesystems: FAIL".

Now, it seems likely/possible that this is the cause, but my hardware is fine AFAIK (was running XP before on the HDD).

I tried re-running the install, but got the same result.

Any ideas what might be causing the problem and how to get around it?
Thanks in advance!

I'm running a Shuttle SN95G5V2, with Athlon64 3200+, 1GB DDR, a passive nVidia 5xxxx graphics card and a 200GB Seagate HDD.

Hi,

I'm new to Linux MCE and I just want to double-check this...if I use the DVD image, my ENTIRE HDD will be erased, or can I just select a particular partition to wipe?

I currently use a PC with Ubuntu and Vista and was hoping to install Linux MCE (Kubuntu), as a third.
It dounds as if I'll need the CD install, but it would be great if someone could confirm that please.
Thanks in advance.
