I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 that has the same problem under 10.04 and under 10.10.
Two things "fix" the problem for me under 10.10: Once the machine is fully up and running, presumably at the login screen but with the vertical bars / stripy pajama effect, if I suspend and resume, the resume comes back with a clean screen at 1280x800. Also, there is a thread in the forums (sorry I don't have the topic to hand) that suggests putting "nomodeset" in the grub boot parameters; for me so far this ensures the machine comes up with a clean screen at 1280x800. I hope this helps! -- vertical coloured lines on bootup dell inspiron 1501 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572521 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
