OK after reading the uvesafb manual I came up with this rather simple workaround that makes my boot experience much better, still a bit jumpy.
sudo gedit /etc/initramfs-tools add: uvesafb mode_option=1280x800-32 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap obviously changing your resolution to what you want then: sudo update-initramfs -u On my M1330 with a nVidia G8400M this worked. Probably not a general workaround though. -- ubuntu-logo on VGA fb (as with nvidia or fglrx binary drivers) does not display crisply https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551013 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
