I have a Thinkpad T510 that is running an old install of Ubuntu Budgie 24.04. after the .iso issues last week I thought I would reinstall the latest download.\
Booting the livecd, I notice that instead of the nice desktop graphics for Budgie I get a text line saying Ubuntu Budgie 24.04.
Then when the desktop finally loads the liveCD locks up tight. Only a hard reset works.
I tried a couple of kernel boot parameters, intel_iommu=off and nomodeset but nothing helps.
Suggestions?
