Screen Goes Black after running Xserver

[Jack]

I've had all sorts of problems getting the ubuntu
family
to run on various machines. The same CD will work on
one
machine and not on another. I tried to use one to
install
Linux on a client's machine. I had to fall back to
an edubuntu CD to make it work. It was very annoying.
