You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Trying to install the official version of Kubuntu 9.04 on a HP550
laptop, which uses the intel X3100 GPU.

Alternate CD install fails to show anything during disk check or
install. After the initial menu the screen goes blank and does not show
the usual progress bar.

Afterwards I tried the Desktop (Live) CD which did show the graphical
progress bar till about 70%, then it went blank again. This happened in
Safe Graphics mode too. I let it continue to install with a blank screen
in Safe Graphics mode, and it did install now, but unfortunately it is
stuck in 1024x768 on my 1280x800 display without further options in the
display settings. Also I need the alternate install to work to be able
to install in an LVM partition.

Edit: not Kubuntu specific, today I tried Ubuntu 9.04 Alternate with the
same result. 8.04 version installs fine.
