Yo también tengo el portátil Toshiba NB250, es el que me han obligado a comprar en el colegio para mi hijo, en sustitución a los libros. Viene instalado Windows 7 y Linkat (OpenSuse). Nosotros por supuesto usamos Linkat. Pronto instalaré en él la nueva versión de Ubuntu 11.04, de mientras he probado Ubuntu 10.10 en un LiveCD y en un pendrive. Y de las dos maneras sucede lo mismo en la primera pantalla de inicio, donde tienes que elegir el idioma con él que quieres arrancar, que no sale, en su lugar te da el siguiente mensaje: Graphics initialization failed error setting vp glxboot boot > y seguido el cursor. Tras él escribo 'help', a continuación sale un menú con las teclas de función y su uso, tras unos segundos continua con el arranque. Con el LiveCD el sistema arranca en inglés. En cambio con el pendrive después de modificar las preferencias de idiomas las demás veces el sistema estará en español. +1 0 -1 Inicie sesión o regístrese para comentar +1 0 -1 Creo que se puede Scorpyo82 Mar, 05/04/2011 - 01:36 Creo que se puede solucionar...
