<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I originally tried Ubuntu 6.10: Edgy Lift but this
did not work. It got past the splash screen and then the screen went black. It
sat there for 3hours:26min before I manually switched it off. When I tried
Ubuntu 4.10 The screen went black and nothing happened when I left it alone for
2hours: 30min.</FONT></DIV>
