The progress since Alpha 3 seems to have fixed it for me. I booted the 4/26 amd64 liveCD, and the monitor maintained the signal during the boot, and then I installed the amd64 alternate from 4/22 and that also came up fine during the boot and passphrase screens. -- monitor drops to standby with

I tested the i386 livecd on a laptop with intel graphics, and the 'ubuntu' splash screen came up [using a Lucid kubuntu cd] and kde started, without any apparent hiccups with the video. I then did an install, and the splash screen again showed up, followed by kde. One interesting thing I found

Public bug reported: During the boot of Lucid alpha 3, the monitor loses signal after the grub menu, and before KDE starts, dropping into standby mode and displaying no signal. Video card is nvidia GeForce 7300 GS. The install was with an encrypted drive, meaning the passphrase prompt is never

I just tried the i386 LiveCD of Kubuntu 10.04 alpha 3. Starting with a normal livecd boot, the 'ubuntu' splash screen shows up without any loss of signal to the monitor. After a while, there is a small transition where the monitor goes out of frequency, possibly due to testing settings. Then

My bug report #528225 would fall under this same bug. I reinstalled Lucid Alpha 3 using the alternate CD, and grub install, os detection, and update-grub all worked flawlessly on the same hardware where blkid hung before with the desktop ubiquity install. /dev/sda2 is the extended partition

I have a system with no floppy, and with the floppy turned off in BIOS. However, I do have a media card reader, and I don't know if that looks like the floppy to the installer, but I get the same problem. It happened in Feisty, Gutsy and now with the Alpha 3 of Hardy Kubuntu. It starts fine,

Update. Looking at the dmesg file from the last boot, I did see that the floppy controller was still being enabled. I dug a bit deeper into the BIOS and discovered another setting. This one was for the FDC, and it was enabled. I disabled that, and then rebooted with the liveCD for Kubuntu
