Hi All, Because I was able to login, I was able to press "Print Screen" a few times in the hope of getting a picture of the corrupted graphics. After I logged in, avoiding screen corruption (booting from cold, removing the 'quiet' 'splash' kernel parameters), I had a look at those screen shots and they were perfect - no corruption at all. For some reason the graphics subsystem thinks it is displaying one thing and the screen is actually showing something that is 80% different.
Charged my camera so I could provide more data about the corrupted graphics on the Samsung NC10 Netbook. I'm not the steadiest photographer in the world, so bear with me. I've attached the photos to this email. Photos 1 through to 4 show corrupted screen activity. 1-booting-with-blurred-screen-1.JPG 2-booting-with-blurred-screen-2.JPG 3-corrupted-login-screen.JPG 4-corrupted-desktop-post-login.JPG Photos 5 through 8 show me editing grub parameters, a resulting noisy boot(7) and a successful login screen 5-grub2-editing-screen-1.JPG 6-grub2-editing-screen-2.JPG 7-noisy-boot-screen.JPG 8-screen-working-after-a-noisy-boot.JPG HTH, Ian -- -- ACCU - Professionalism in programming - http://www.accu.org -- My writing - https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/ -- Free Software page - https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/home/free-software
