Ubuntu 12.04 Installed, monitor turns off after the BIOS screen

After a little struggling, I managed to install Ubuntu 12.04. I can hear the computer running while the screen is off, and it turns off directly after the BIOS screen.

  • /home partition with the remainder of the space on the disk.


nomodEset:

MavNix, I believe the reason you are still having issues is because you mistyped the necessary parameter 'nomodset'. It should be 'nomodeset', with an e (lower case). Thanks and hope you get it running.
