Title:
Unable to install Ubuntu when using an HDMI monitor
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Although an installed Ubuntu system supports HDMI, the Ubuntu
installer does not appear to support HDMI at all, so any system with
only an HDMI monitor effectively cannot have Ubuntu manually installed
on it. Oddly, the boot menu shows up on an HDMI monitor, but selecting
any option (e.g. "Install Ubuntu") causes the screen to go completely
black, after which nothing appears.
I encountered this problem on a Dell Inspiron 660s while attempting to
install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Strangely, the Mythbuntu installer works
perfectly fine with HDMI...
