Ken Milburn, as per http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-
page.aspx?pid=3910#bios an update is available for your BIOS (F6). If
you update to this, does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  No display on 12.04 (Nomodeset fixes it) - No problem with mainline
  kernel 3.6

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After a dualboot install, grub takes the ubuntu to a tan screen and freezes
  If I power down and start over, this time select linux recovery,  and then Resume I correctly arrive at the login screen.

  Running boot-repair has resulted in what appears to be the login
  screen but it is split into two.  The mouse can travel right and
  arrive in the left window.  Paste /1201849  was near the start of my
  contacts with Yann.  /1211250 was after the nomodeset option.
