My laptop (possibly just display adapter) do not appear to be supported.
Hey guys,
I've tried the regular ubuntu discs, the alternate cd and just about every linux distribution available and none of them seem to work on my laptop. It is:
Advent 9315
Intel Core 2 Duo T5250 1.5ghz
2GB Ram
120GB HDD
SiS Mirage 3 Graphics Adapter
Generic PnP Monitor
Every installation I try freezes at some point or another, sometimes with funky flashing "crashing screens". This is regardless to whether I run in text mode or normal.
So my question is basically this: Am I right in assuming that this hardware config is just not supported? If that is the case, is there any chance it will be in the future?
I've searched high and low for info, but neither this laptop model or the graphics chip inside seem to be popular choices. Nobody on the IRC support channels could offer any advice either unfortunately. Any advice or guidance received will be hugely appreciated.
