mint hangs while booting on 64-bit system

Post by thomasmoens »

Hi,
I just installed linux mint on my 64-bit system and when i boot i first get the start screen with the green bar and then (when i expect to see gnome) i just see a plain black screen.

Does anybody have to same problem with 32 bit linux on 64 bits

PS: I had the same problem with Ubuntu
Could this be a hardware problem?

Hi thomasmoens, I too run Mint 2.1 on an AMD64 system and never had a problem, sounds like a hardware problem to me, maybe someone can come along with a fix. :)

From the description it seems indeed to be a hardware problem.
I think you find the answer here
http://www.linuxmint.com/wiki/index.php ... ur_Live_CD
There is a problem with linking wiki pages to the main side that I have not solved so that's why you don't find the link to it there.
