You have been subscribed to a public bug: I became a "full time" convert with Xubuntu 12.10. I had used other versions of Ubuntu/Kubuntu for several years intermittently. So, I was anxious to install this upgrade on a Dell Inspiron 5150. It uses 1280X1024 @ 59.9 Hz. It can be set for several others. They all seem to use 'fractional' sync frequencies. The upgrade apparently uses different resolutions and 60 Hz. Whether or not that is the specific issue, the new install breaks the video sync into totally unreadable flashes and sweeps. I can't seem to get a usable/tailorable install because of this. Tried several downloads and burns. Anyway, I've done it with other levels and versions and they work. Hopefully there is a quick remedty for this. I know several institutions (mainly hospitals) with a slug of these devices. Seems to me a simple install fix would be the old 640X480 during install and let me tailor the final video parameters. Anyway, I can see this being a negative impact to the new release and thank-you for any assistance you can provide.
