I continue to have this problem with the new ubuntu 7.04.....however
this issue does not exist in xubuntu 7.04. I was able to boot the live
CD and do a complete install using xubuntu 7.04, however I was not able
to complete the boot process  Live CD ubuntu 7.04 on any computer. I am
not talking about a display problem here, this is booting errors, bad
blocks, buffer errors, etc, but CD works just fine in VMware as well as
upgrade process.  I completed my tests on several different computers
and found the following work around: when the flat panel monitor
switches off due to the signal range error, simply connect a crt to get
the display output working, then re-connect the flat panel display to
complete the install. once installed, reboot computer, and display will
once again switch off at gdm launch, again , re-connect crt display and
on completion of boot and login, set a default display resolution in the
display settings to prevent further display issues(This is the actual
cure to my display problems). This worked every time I ran into the
problem. I was not able to complete any boots on a number of my
computers using ubuntu 7.04 due to errors loading the OS, however I was
able to install ubuntu 7.04 in vmware just fine using the CD I burned. I
was also able to upgrade ubuntu 6.10 to the new ubuntu 7.04 using the CD
just fine and wow, it really is a great release !!! I wanted to give
direct feed back on that! great job guys ! I will be happy to help in
any way I can to resolve this display problem, I can duplicate it at
will on several computers. but I have one basic problem, IDE based
computers seem to have fewer boot issues, but the majority of my
computers are SCSI based and many times the CD source cannot be found or
errors prevent the completion of the boot process. once again, I am
mearly raising the question that ubuntu 5.04, ubuntu 5.10 did not have
the boot issues or the display issues. I have a burned cd of 6.04 as
well as 6.06 LTS, I booted 6.04 just fine, but started having boot
issues with 6.06LTS. I seem to be able to get around the problems now
that I have discovered a work around with display, but the boot errors
on the later releases on some computers I cannot get around. display
issues are 90%, boot errors are 10%. my gut tells me that the problem is
in xorg probing the FP display with some harmful settings and not
receiving any response in return when it (the FP )switches off. however
this does not explain why xubuntu 7.04 appears to boot properly without
this display problem. same xorg version ?
