The title of this bug report Vaio PCG-SRX51P/B has two graphics
problems does rather give the game away that this is not a Dell machine
;-)
The BIOS on this SRX51P/B is very limited in options, there is nothing I
can see about video memory buffers. As it is a laptop, this doesn't
surprise me as

Oh right, a Vaio, obviously :) . According to your attached files, your
computer does not use any special options that might cause problems and
you have a Intel Corporation 82815 Chipset Graphics Controller
/etc/usplash.conf has the right values:
| more /etc/usplash.conf
# Usplash configuration file
xres=1024
yres=768

There seems to be a number of options in Bug 68012. I tried adding
vga=773 to the boot line but this just put me into a which video mode
dialogue.

Russel Winder : Did you look at the workaround in the bug description?
In the BIOS setup in the menu Intergrated Devices (LegacySelect
Options) increase Onboard Video Buffer from 1 MB to 8 MB.. If you
have such option in your BIOS, it would be very interesting that you try
it to see if it solves

Thanks for your fast answers. Since you don't seem to have a Dell
computer, the menu in your BIOS might not exist or have another name.
Ex. Onboard Video Buffer could be Video memory, you can look if you
find an option in your BIOS that you can swith from 1Mb to 8Mb. Be
careful when changing
Hardy boots fine, but the splash screen never shows. If I boot without
splash everything goes as expected, with splash I just get a blank
screen during the boot. So all the irritation during boot has gone but

In other news, it seems that there are no problems with
Thank you for your confirmation. Can you compare the content of your
/etc/usplash.conf file and the actual resolution of your screen? The
resolution of your screen is shown under System / Preferences / Screen
Resolution. If you have a different value in /etc/usplash.conf, can you

Thanks for your
We are now at Gutsy but very soon Hardy. I think it would be best to
wait till after the upgrade to Hardy to try the experiment to determine
if there is still a problem.
Currently with Gutsy, I have the splash screen switched off, so I have
no data about the flashing. As with Feisty, the screen

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the
development release - Hardy Heron. It would help us greatly if you could
test with it so we can work
I probably ought to report that there is still a problem with Feisty --
there is no longer the nasty flashing but just a black screen. I have
removed quiet and splash from the boot options as the only sane solution
to the problem. It doens't look nice when booting but it is very
effective.
