What should I do when Ubuntu freezes?
A friend of mine is having problems installing Ubuntu. We've tried both 12.10 and 12.04 ver. but each time we get and then we got stuck. His comp is:
Motherboard: ASUS P5G41-M LX
CPU: Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E6500 @ 2.93GHz
DISK: Disk 500.1 GB SAMSUNG HD502HJ
RAM:
Slot 1 DDR2 (PC2-6400) 2048 MB Kingston
Slot 2 DDR2 (PC2-6400) 2048 MB Hyundai Electronics
Graph card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 240
Any solution for this?
Enable nomodeset and noapic parameters. Additionally, you can also try noalpic and acpi=off but nomodeset generally works
