    Stop on Kubuntu logo

    Hi, I am very new to Linux.
    I have install Kubuntu on my Acer E3-111 that was pre-install with w8.1
    I have completly remove the Windows partition and after setting Quiet boot to disabled all have install ok.

    I was exploring when I decide to move to another room, I was in Firefox.
    I unplugged it and close the lid and when I have reopen it, nothing has happen.
    It is like it is freeze there. I did not find any key to wake it up.
    After pressing the on/off for quiet a long time, 10 sec. I hearded some sound that make me think that now it was really stop.
    I press again on on/off, it start to boot, the Kubuntu logo was there and it seems to froze there.

    Any body have an clue.

    I forgot to include de version.

    I have done some other tests.
    I am trying to re-install with the UBS key but I am unable. It try to look for a CD, I don't understand why.
    In bios, I could see the USB key and it is the first in the list followed by the HD.



    This is what I get when I boot. The Kubuntu logo stay there.

      So with the same downloaded iso you originallyhad a good install?
      And then it got stuck/frozen upon recovery from sleep or hibernation.

      And now you try a new install with the same iso?

      The first time you did it from the DVD?
      The second time you tried first from a USB flash drive and also from the same original DVD?

      It looks like a bad download or 'burn' to the USB flash drive...

      There are options to check the MD5 hash after downloading AND after burning to DVD or USB, this will assure you there are no problems with the iso.

        Ok, thanks for reply.
        I have send back this Acer E3-111-xxxx Laptop to the store because there is a few thread that talk about this same problem that I had with that serie of Laptop.
        No one found a solution as far as I could understand.

        ps
        I have follow the instruction on the Ubuntu and Kubuntu page as far as I can understand and I found that this was relatively easy.
        I have used 2 iso files with 2 different installer.
