** Description changed:

  Kubuntu and Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex Beta
  
  Not sure the package, tried to narrow this down to nvidia graphics
  drivers. I still think it may be a problem with the new nvidia-graphics
  drivers in 8.10, although even after removing anything nvidia* I still
  get the corrupted screen.
  
  I expected to have a running OS that I could see.
  
  After the loading spash screen, my screen turns into a screen full of
  vertical lines flashing grey and many colors, that is it. (no failsafe
  x-server or anything) This occurs with the new kernel in 8.10 and the
  old kernel from 8.04, so its not a result of the new kernel as was
  suspect in the beginning. This occured when I updated via update-manager
  -d in ubuntu 8.04, from the live cd for ubuntu 8.10 beta in both the
  install option and run off of live cd option, and when installing via
  adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel in kubuntu 8.04. I tried all the
  suggested nvidia bug problems for the new graphic drivers in the ubuntu
  forums, but to no avail, my screen still is just full of flashing lines.
  
+ My graphics card is: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6800 GS] (rev a2).
  Not sure what logs and info need be supplied, let me know and I will
  tried and supply them, although I am not sure how I would get them onto
