I found somewhere in this forum that there is some compiability issue with AMD and Ubuntu. In this regard I think Praka123 will guide you better. Wait till his reply.

 

[legolas]

i think this better goes in open source where you will get more replies. reporting thread.

have patience, just wait till Your disc arrives.
Till then you can read about Linux in General.

This one is a must read --> *linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
