I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 on my Laptop (Intel Dual Core/Nvidia Graphics).
I am able to boot from cd and I reach the purple screen (here)
But after this screen there is a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have seen all the similar topics but haven't solved it yet.
Boot problems with 3.2.0.-44-generic (If I remember well, this is 12.04)

Normal BIOS screen
Boot loader

my laptop won't boot anymore, all goes well till i see the plymouth screen with the "drop" filling to the fedora logo. After that i get a black screen, gnome-shell doesn't seem to load.

I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my Toshiba Satellite A135-S7403 laptop using a flash drive. The installation went perfectly, I replaced Windows 7 with the ubuntu version and deleted all the old partitions on the hard drive. However, after being prompted to restart, all i get is a black screen with the flashing underscore after BIOS.
