@CalcProgrammer: Using installed version 8.04.1, I managed to copy your xorg.conf file. I then shutdown the system and rebooted. Screen now working fine on 8.04.1
I am not sure about updating to 8.10 until I can figure out what is going on. Looking at the bottom of the laptop, there appears to be a lot of screws, and I am not too sure about taking the laptop apart. Next step is to figure out how to get the Netgear PC Card working (WG511 v2). I have the initial CD I got from netgear and can locate the WG511v2.INF file under the drivers/windowsxp directory on the cd. I found this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76804 I also read the help info (for Using Windows Wireless Drivers) but could not find a package called ndisgtk under System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package manager. The good news is that, thanks to you guys for sharing your knowledge, we have something that works and can build on. -- [intrepid] Ubuntu 8.10 will not boot Live on IBM ThinkPad A21p - CPU 1 soft lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231455 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
