Public bug reported: Edgy cannot be installed from the live CD on a Dell Latitude D505 (Intel 82852/82855GM video adapter) because of major screen corruption. The top of the screen is filled with garbage and the mouse pointer is invisible.
I managed to install Edgy after downgrading the BIOS to revision A09. However, X will not work with a more recent version of the BIOS. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Major screen corruption with X in Edgy on Dell Latitude D505 https://launchpad.net/bugs/80959 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
