Public bug reported:
Current Live CDs (I have looked back all the way to Karmic) display severe
graphical errors on my computer; this is an HP Pavillion DV6636NR with a
GeForce 7150M/nForce 630M video card. When booting with the LiveCD, the CD
correctly recognizes that the monitor's native resolution is 1280x800 and uses
that; this leaves the computer almost unusable. I have no problems finding my
way to comfigure the monitor for 1024x768 resolution, at which point everything
works perfectly. Here is a screenshot taken with my cell phone:

This screenshot shows the System->Preferences->Monitors applet, as well as the
Applications->Accessories menu. It is low-res enough to not show the
interlace-like effect by which only the odd lines are drawn, but it is the best
camera I have available.
This problem is restricted to the LiveCD -- installing any of those
versions (Karmic to Natty) results in normal, uncorrupted graphics.
