  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  First, thanks and greetings to all who contribute to this wonderful
  community :-)

  I guess the package in problem is is Ubiquity. But I am not sure.
  I bought this new netbook - Samsung NC 20. More info at
  http://www.sammynetbook.com/samsung-nc20
  # CPU: VIA Nano™ ULV Processor U2250 (1.3+GHz, 800MHz)
  # Chipset: VIA VX800 Unified Digital Media IGP Chipset

  I tried to install Ubuntu 9.04 from after downloading it from
  http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download a couple of days ago (week of
  8th May 2009). Since I do not have a CD rom drive, i used UNetBooting
  to create  a bootable USB from the ISO image. While booting I got the
  options menu. I chose default. I could see the Ubuntu logo with a
  horizontal bar for some time. Then the screen blurred. I could see
  some blurred image of Ubuntu on the screen. I had to stop installation
  there. Then I tried to give boot switches in the first(and only) menu.
  I tried vga=771 and fb=off. But they did not work. The screen
  resolution is 1280x800 for which I do not see a number. From web I
  could get a number of 640x400, that also did not work. The same thing
  happened with Xubuntu 9.04. Then I changed to Ubuntu 8.04LTS. This
  time I could get the windows (is it Xwindows?) I clicked on install.
  It worked and I could take it through complete installation. But now
  the WLAN is not detected (it could be another bug).

  This bug is about getting the correct display during installation
  boot. Could you do anything? Please let me know how I could help.
