- Downloaded nightly build, made a live stick.

- Problems starting the image, total failure with display, terminal
Ctrl-Alt-F1 in mess, too.

- Start with "nomodeset", success.

- Doing apport-collect was not possible, too many problems:

----------------------------------------------------
You need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-collect to work.

sudo apt-get install python-apport

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with
--fix-missing?

-----------------------------------------------------------

Summary:  Problem has always been with display driver.   Starting with 
"nomodeset" results in clean startup with limited resolution.   Installing 
proprietary GeForce drivers succeeds at that point and those closed drivers 
find correct resolution of lcd panel.
Open drivers were last time working with correct resolution when using Ubuntu 
9.10 32-bits.

Title:
  Displayn detection fails in Lucid - laptop + Nvidia 7000

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Acer 5520 series, model ICW50   laptop computer
  nVidia C67 GeForce 7000M / nForce 610M (rev a2)
  Build-in LCD panel native resolution 1280x800
  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  Kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic #33 amd_64

  Description:
  Lucid fails to detect correct display resolution 1280x800 and falls back to 
1034x768 which is dizzy / ugly on that panel, fonts turn difficult to read.   
Trying manually to raise resolution to 1280x800 using "xrandr": 

  xrandr --newmode "1280x800"   83.50  1280 1352 1480 1680  800 803 809
  831 -hsync +vsync

  xrandr --addmode default 1280x800

  xrandr -s 1280x800

  Failed to change the screen configuration!
