Multiple problems while installing Ubuntu 13.04 on LENOVO G500 laptop
- by Balazs Kiss
Dear Community,
I encountered several problems when installing Ubuntu on my new Lenovo G500 laptop. First I bumped in the problem (also reported by many other) of the black screen after booting Ubuntu. This problem I recould solve by changing the "quiet splash" record of GRUB to "nomodeset".
Ubuntu install was successful then. After the installation, I had a black screen again when booting up for the first time. I booted up again with "nomodeset", and enabled the external AMD driver at Hardware Drivers. Booting still do not worked (only with nomodeset), and when I log in, the system gives me a "System program problem detected" message, and the system (desktop) does not load in.
Please, can you advise me what to do?
Shall I re-install Ubuntu?
What are the steps to make my ubuntu work with this harver?
Hardware:
LENOVO G500 with
IntelCore i5-3230M 3,2Ghz processor
and AMD Radeon HD8570 integrated chip
Thank you for your help in advance!
