Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-utils
Hi,
I'm a non-technical 'noob'.
I tried to run Ubuntu 8.10 from the live CD on my desktop but it would just not
go past the loading black screen with text. However, the live CD of Ubuntu 8.04
ran very well on my Desktop. I then went on to install it with my previous OS
XP (Dual boot). Everything worked great except my Lexmark X 5470. I then
'upgraded' to Ubuntu 8.10. I was very happy to see 'everything work' so well.
It is when I rebooted that I got the message "Ubuntu has to start in low
graphics mode". I get the message:
"(EE) intel(0): No valid modes.
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration"
The sad part is Ubuntu 8.10 worked great immediately after the 'upgrade'
however, it started this problem after its first reboot. Please help.
I tried (after a Google search) some help given on your forum, lauchpad
as well as the web, but have not got this problem fixed yet.
Code: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
and when complete use the command to reboot Code:
sudo reboot
I also tried Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
This too didn't help
