Are there Know issues with Ubuntu 11 and socket 1155? acpi=off
- by James
Since building my new system I cant get Ubuntu (or any other flavor of Linux) to "run" properly.
To boot the live cd I have to "F6" and turn off acpi or the screen halts at a black screen with "boot stuff" written above the blinking curser.
When installed I can only boot if I enter repair mode from Grub menu then once in repair mode I choose Boot Normally and it boots to the desktop.
Once on the desktop I can "click" (with the mouse) only on one thing...like firefox or "desktop appearance" and the mouse no longer "clicks" on anything else ...its like the computer freezes but the mouse still moves. I end up using the reset button to restart the computer.
I was able to update when prompted to do so....but at the end of the update I could not "click" the "finish" and had to use the manual reset button.
I have run Ubuntu since v 8...
My system specs are:
intel i7 2600k ...Graphics disabled in bios...
Asus p8z68-v pro....
16G Kingston HyperX....
2 EVGA GTX 570 in SLI....
Mouse is a simple Logitech usb Wireless.
Ubuntu installed on secondary sata drive.
