Laptop issues

Ubuntu 10.04 and Xubuntu 10.04 bot die attempting to boot my laptop. It is a Ubuntu thing I suppose. It worked before. I'm telling you, there is only one way to express my feelings.

Fedora 13 doesn't come out for three more days. I may have to try that on my laptop to get me by. Why did I bother upgrading? I hadn't run that laptop in weeks. Why did i bother? At least now I know it is a failed effort.
