Stuck.. Black screen..
 
Hello, I have downloaded the AMD64 DVD of 5.10, installed on my zv6131us, and I am now stuck at a black screen...

http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=52201

I read that, but seems how I am new, I do not know how to go about editing that file so that I can login. I try to run the live CD, but when I go to boot it, I hit enter, and it just goes right into installing it. Anyone have any ideas?

Got to the file using Knoppix

Don't know where to add the noaccel option at.


Here's what I see:

Code:

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.

Try adding Option "noaccel" to the Section Device part.

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Intel 810"
Option "noaccel"
