Hi All,
I have installed WinXp (32 Bit), Windows 7 (64 Bit) and Ubuntu (10.4) on my Pentium i5 machine. My monitor is
Dell 2010M flat 20 inch wide screen.
When I boot Ubuntu I dont see the classic messages I used to see something like below:
Starting Crond [OK]
Starting Keboard [FAILED]

Has this changed? Also Ctrl + Shift + F2 does not take me to shell, Monitor goes blank and goes to sleep mode. Is it something
related to monitor or has the linux itself has changed? Please advise.
Thanks and Regards,
Raghunand.
