As mentioned in the title, I am unable to successfully get to the Ubuntu desktop after entering my credentials on the Tensorbook. I have attempted to install the lambda stack; however, Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2, etc. does not work.

The Tensorbook currently has a dual-boot configuration with both operating systems being a fresh install.

Thank you for your help in advance!

You can’t do a fresh Ubuntu install on a TensorBook, you’ll need to actually use our special version of Ubuntu otherwise you’ll run into issues with your graphics drivers. Please contact [support@lambdalabs.com](mailto:support@lambdalabs.com) and they can help you out.
