hey HAI.

i sadly have an Acer Aspire 3050 laptop.
Gutsy wasn't going very well on that computer (and i checked around, it seems it was like that for everybody) with stuff like wireless not working and sound buggy.

anyway. when i saw that Hardy was in alpha, i tried downloading it and installing it. but, upon choosing "installation" from the boot menu, the orange bar would load to about 25% and freeze there. for hours. i tried leaving it on all night. nothing happens, just freezes. it wouldn't work by upgrading through the manager either. it downloaded, had fun with the packages then reboot. and it wouldn't work.

then i saw the beta and tried. same thing.

i was full of hope for the release.

of course it does the same. i just can't install it on my damned laptop and it makes me really really sad.

anyone have the same issue?
or have any idea?
or maybe have beer? hmm, beer.

thanks
