I had some issues in using my Compaq F500 in using Ubuntu Ultimate Edition on my Compaq F500. This included it crashing out (and freezing) and the screen not working. These issues were overcome with the use of the following boot options:
• acpi=off
• vga=792
Once I added those to the end of the grub boot options the system ran fantastically. I had some conflicting information initially, where the boot option should read noacpi however this has been changed to a standard on and off switch.
I hope this helps some of you out there.
