hi
thanks a lot for your fast reply.
i 'll try your suggestions this evening.
yes i have 2 nic's in my machine.
just got 7.10 working but only with vesa and the onboard graphic. only statics images are working no ui2.
maby thats because the gma4500 was produced in 2008 and there is no driver in 7.10.?

Installation issues / LinuxMCE on a Lenovo Thinkcentre M58p

« on: February 19, 2011, 10:03:16 am »

Hi,
i'm new in that forum. 
i've tried to install linuxmce on a thinkcentre m58p without any results.
there is a intel gma 4500 graphic controller onboard. (vga and display port)
first i start the 7.10 64bit dvd installation. the installation went through, system restarts and i get a blues screen with the text "failed to start x"
next i tested the 32bit version. same outcome ... :-(
ok installed kubuntu 8.10 and doing a internet installation. the system restarts again and again.nothing happens  ...
i bought a nvidia geforce 8400 gs (manufactor: gigabyte, vga and dvi output)
first i start the 7.10 64bit dvd installation. after pressing install linuxmce 7.10 my screen went black. can not go on installing.
the 32bit linuxmce installation process works. after the first reboot my screen is empty again.
i do not know what to do anymore , thaks for your help
greetings
jan
