Title:
  [VX800] Ubuntu 10.04 alpha 3 boot corrupts screen (A110 netbook)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-openchrome” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When booting the screen-content will suddenly disintegrate (on X
  startup?). No graphical login is possible. After startup it's possible
  to change to a text console (screen won't recover, though) and press
  ctrl-alt-del for a machine shutdown/restart.

  In-depth hardware description: http://a110wiki.de/wiki/One_A110

  Videos of the bootup process:

  Standard options: http://people.xiph.org/~maikmerten/a110-ubuntu/standardboot.ogv
  With removed "quiet splash": http://people.xiph.org/~maikmerten/a110-ubuntu/boot-noquiet-nosplash.ogv

  
  Graphical installation from USB stick works, with at most a few corrupted pixels at the top of the display.

  
  Unsure what package - could be kernel (is there kernel-modesetting for VIA hardware?), framebuffer or the X driver.

  
  Expected result: Graphical login screen.
  What happend instead: Corrupted screen.
