<PRE>On Tuesday 29 May 2012 13:17 my mailbox was graced by a message from Luca 
Olivetti who wrote:
&gt;<i> &gt; Found a work-around on an Unbubtu list:
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; one must add acpi_osi=Linux to the line under &quot;title linux&quot; in 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; /boot/grub/menu.lst
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Only problem, that would make this rather difficult for a newbee, is that
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; you  cannot do it in Mageia, since your screen is not showing;
</I>
&gt;<i> Not even in grub?
</I>&gt;<i> If the grub menu is visible, you can press &quot;Esc&quot; (to exit graphical mode),
</I>&gt;<i> then &quot;e&quot; to edit the highlighted entry and edit it directly in grub. This
</I>&gt;<i> is not permanent, but once booted successfully you can edit
</I>&gt;<i> /boot/grub/menu.lst
</I>
Nothing is visible on screen, either graphical or text mode with alt-ctrl-F1
 
Hence the newbee-unfriendly maneuvering with Mandriva LiveCD (Mageia LiveCD 
gives the same black screen as the Mageia install) and modifying  
/boot/grub/menu.lst

Cheers,
 
Ron.
