** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Jaunty gave me 85 Hz refresh rates and resolutions higher then 1024x768
  
  Karmic beta restricts me to 1024x768x75 & lower
  
  At 75 Hz I can still see the monitor flickering,
  
  which hurts my eyes, & actually causes me to tire faster and stop my
  work on my PC.
  
  Apparently, the new automatic probes for resolutions & refresh rates
  
  do not accurately represent the capabilities of both the monitor or the
  graphics card.
  
  xserver-xorg-video-intel drivers default back to vesa and framebuffer
  probing.
  
  the xorg.conf file shows a search for intel-i810 drivers which of course
  were
  
  replaced by the xserver-xorg-video-intel drivers.
  
  Possible other side-effects are: black frame-shadows around all windows
  and
  
  icons, perhaps this is supposed to emulate a 3D effect (unable to alter
  this effect)
  
  also, for some strange reason all desktop icons, as well as folders in
  nautilus,
  
  now have a green check-mark  attached to them.
  
  I am also unable to properly shut down my system.
  
  I can either use BUM & sysV-rc-conf to shut down the PC when selecting
  reboot,
  
  or make reboot work, but then am unable to fully shut down.
  
  I believe in YOU to fix these annoyances soon, maybe my input is some
  help to you.
  
  Searching the forums and bug reports, evidently 1000s of users are
  experiencing
  
  similar or related bugs.
  
  Of course, that is to be expected with a beta version.
  
  Thank YOU for your hard work and YOUR genius in developing Ubuntu.
  
  BavarianPH
  
  Ubuntu forever!
