Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-mga
I download the feisty herd 5 desktop CD, when I booted off the CD it
came up in only a 800x600 screen.
I have included the output of 'lspci' and 'dmidecode' because I was
asked to by someone on the 'ubuntu-devel' irc channel, and I also
included part of the xorg.conf file.
I can get other info and install this to a spare partition if needed.
