xserver-xorg-driver-nv package

GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 - I downloaded and burned CD. At boot of Ubuntu CD goes to a zizzag type of screen and stops

Asked by Gary Fuerstenberg

I download the 10.04 and burned it to a CD. I want to try it before I load it. I rebooted from the cd and it loads and after about 2 minutes a multi-colored background comes up and shortly thereafter IT GOES TO A ZIZZAG TYPE OF DISPLAY AND EVERYTHING STOPS. i CAN'T GET IT TO DO ANYTHING. I had to pull the p[lug take out the CD and reboot from the hard disk. Everything is working fine but I would still like to try it.

When you boot from CD, you see at bottom a line, in which you can move with left and right arrows.
Can you delete "quiet splash", boot and then post the last lines displayed before problem.
