[Bug 367442] Re: [CLE266][regression] Jaunty and Intrepid screen xserver won't start

 

Tried to install Ubuntu using the alternate CD:

I installed the base system and the ubuntu-desktop using aptitude. But I
was unable to build a debug version of Openchrome driver (SVN). When
trying to "configure" the package I get the error saying that Xorg
Server is not installed amongst other three packages the names of which
I cannot recall right now. Four packages missing altogether that were
not available in the repository. Building Openchrome driver failed.

The Live CD 9.10 installation was a real nightmare, too.

I used a "safe graphics" installation only to see that my graphics card
was blinking the whole screen not able to load the X Server (the
graphics). I fixed this by issuing the following command:

# /etc/init.d/gdm stop

Then, as always, I added the "noaccel" option to the xorg.conf file and
everything went smooth after all.

I hope the above information helps in finding the bug.

NOW, let me try the "modeSwitch" "new" :)
