10.04 install not working on older machine
I just installed 10.04 on a very old (circa 2000-2001) Gateway desktop and I'm having a bit of an issue. The first time I booted the computer up after the initial install, it went through numerous software updates and prompted for reboot. When I completed the reboot, the only thing that was visible is the desktop image. I've let it sit for over 15 minutes and nothing. Right-clicking the desktop also yields no results. Ctrl+Alt+Del will bring up a shutdown menu. I've been through the help topics on that screen to no avail. I was also not able to find the answer I was looking for in the other topics on this site.
I'm not very experienced with Ubuntu (or any other Linux distro for that matter) so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Here are some of my computer's specs (To the best of my knowledge):
Pentium III 1 Ghz
512 MB PC133 RAM
20GB HDD
Thanks!
