** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  With vmware 7 as host, tried installing Lucid (as guest os) separately
  using desktop iso, alternate iso, and using dist-upgrade from Karmic.
- All situations result in allowing only low graphics mode as the vmware
- display driver will not initialize. Tried reinstalling the vmware
- display driver package but it did not help.
+ All situations result in allowing only low graphics mode (triggers
