hi,
i've read as can , have tried sorts of "fixes" cannot compaq 615 run ubuntu 10.4. can load pressing f6 furiously, left itself, blank screen - cursor stops flashing!

ubuntu run on compaq 615?

i've tried these versions:

desktop
netbook
desktop 64 bit

i've formatted hard drive twice (takes 8 hours each time!).

i've tried these extensions when loading programme cd (inserted before quiet splash)

xforcevesa
nomodeset
nomodeset xforcevesa

suggested post output of "lspci | grep vga", have no idea is, or enter it, or when enter it.

i'm absolute beginner on linux , i'm ready return windows (despite fact i'm strong supporter of open source). @ least windows runs, may malign it.

now?
