[Bug 1514102] Re: Intel Graphic chips bug(s)

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected ubuntu

** Description changed:

  1. Original bug was where the graphics would normally work but every so
  often the screen would be corrupted with horizontal lines of junk.
  
  After much research I found a primitive fix for that:-
  * edit /etc/default/grub to add nomodeset to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
  * sudo update-grub
  * reboot
  
  2. Now the system will only allow VGA 640x480 graphics
  
  This is occurring on an Intel 829845G/GZ chipset

No problem. On occasion I get confused as to which web page to do things on
but the lubuntu mailing list there are people who help me. You see, I have
schizophrenia and sometimes get a little confused.

I've checked this many times before running it. Would you be able to
confirm I got the number right?

Had to install a Python apport package as well.
