After Ubuntu 11.04 Beta 1 was installed on my computer, grub would work without a problem, but then when I'd go to run Ubuntu, the screen would freeze up at the start-up of the operating system and the only way that I can get into Ubuntu right now is through the recovery mode by selecting the failsafe graphics mode and running the system in low graphics mode, if I figure out how to get around that, I'll let you know more.

JCfreak1087, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://
If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-
apport-collect -p linux <replace-
Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/
Thanks in advance.
