Comment 16 for bug 178634

@Amit Sorry. I think we have a misunderstanding! ;-)

When my friend ran uname -r, he got 2.6.24-5-generic. So, I don't think that the hardy live cd is loading the right kernel version. He said he had to boot into 'safe graphics mode' - does this load a different version of the kernel?

In any case, I will ask him to redownload and reburn the cd in a week or so.
