Stuck on Ubuntu startup screen (5 orange bullets)
- by psyboy14
I recently download Ubuntu 12.04 LTS onto my Macbook Pro 5-5. Everything worked seamlessly, save for the brightness control. I couldn't change the screen brightness from the hardware buttons, nor from the system preferences.
To fix it, I used the instructions here: MacbookPro 5-5 LCD Brightness Control
At #2, I restarted my laptop, only to see that it went straight to the Ubuntu Startup Screen, with the 5 orange dots (Usually they all startoff white, then turn orange to indicate progress). From there, I tried controlling the brightness from the keyboard, and it worked, but sadly, my computer is still stuck on the loading screen.
(Yes, I have tried manually restarting it)
Could you please help?
Thank you in advance
