Hello. I am new to ubuntu & linux but have significant computer
experience. I have been having the exact same problem installing Ubuntu
8.10 beta on my Dell Inspiron 8000. With Normal Install I get the same
messed-up screen display that, although can be used, is extremely time-
consuming/frustrating to navigate. Three vertical columns appear,
consisting of screen areas that are out of place and the middle of the
screen is not visible while the right of the screen is duplicated.
Installing in Safe Graphics Mode the system loads but the correct screen
resolution cannot be enabled (by me).
The lspci - nn | grep VGA is:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller
[0300] : ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M4 AGP [1002:4d46]
I am not sure if this is anything new. I just wanted to add to the
report my experience with the problem. I have exhaustively tried to
find a solution within the support documentation and forums to no avail.
If you have any suggestions or if I can be of any help, I would be happy
to help solve this issue.
Thank you.
Jason
