[Bug 530554] Re: video=sisfb on menu.list / grub.cfg no longer works Ubuntu Lucid

 

Problems identified.

Lucid hang up on first boot (or it took too long to go to desktop)
>>>  with new MONITOR <<<
After recovery > reconfigure hardware menu in the recovery mode.

The high resolution work ok with Samsung Syncmaster 913v
 with 1280x1024(5:4)

And Lucid boot up, after a few restart, very fast, faster than on
Packard Bell monitor.

But suspend function worked but have to wake with power on button plus
press key board, and it could hibernate but upon reboot, it will show
desktop as it is fresh booted. But with network card disable. (which is
the same symptom as when hibernation failed on my notebook.

Fedora 12 did not fail to boot into desktop when first use this new
sumsung monitor.

Conclusion
=========

XP never fail to work with Packard Bell monitor.
Fedora 12 fail to have higher resolution than 900x600. But can be fool by turning the monitor off till it fully boot into Desktop.

Lucid failed to do better than 900x600 but can sometimes be fool if boot
Fedora 12 into high resolution first and reboot into Lucid without power
off the Packard Bell monitor.

I hope it will help the Gurus to improve Ubuntu with 2 days of my effort
to solve the issue.
