HELP - KARMIC UPGRADE NOT WORKING PROPERLY ON MY SAMSUNG
Posted: 02 Nov 2009, 10:56
hi, i've just signed up to this forum as I've found it very helpful in the past. i upgraded to karmic only a few days ago via update manager from Jaunty 9.04 and now I seem to have a number of issues
i've logged these on launchpad but things have gone quiet
i'm wondering if anyone can help me
Major Issues for me since upgrade
Fan is constantly on (even when netbook just booted). concerning for battery life and life of fan
Karmic defaults to recovery mode on mode (i dual boot) after I select the ubuntu option. i then get a black screen with a list of scripts. i googled and found out if I type startx it will take me into my system. when I log out out I get the same black screen but the system does not power down. i have to kill it using the power on/off button. very worrying for damage to hard disk!
hope you can help
