[Garry Leach <681945@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am using 11.04.

I have had problems with displaying the Grub boot menu, plus getting a
warning from the monitor (Dell 24 inch) about matching the resolution.
After much "research" & some trial & error with changing Grub2's input
files (GFXMODE & VGA=), I now have the grub menu, but I do get an Ubuntu
error msg (about VGA=, which I realise is unrelated to this bug).

So I tried running in recovery mode & that is when I received the error
msg about memory.

I have an nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9500 GT] (rev a1) chip on a
card, & "using" NVidia accelerated graphics driver (version 173),
although the Additional Drivers tool says that it is activated but not
in use (I have read that this msg is incorrect).  I previously had the
"version current" installed, but changed it when it also said that it
was not in use...

I also get a major failure when I try to return to the desktop (from a
console), using ctl/alt/F7; only the bottom half of the screen shows
anything, but it is gibberish.

Regards, Garry.
