Hi,

I don't have it. I burned an ISO and installed ran the live CD from there.
After about an hour of mucking around I deleted the ISO and binned my Ubuntu
CD.

I am of the view that Ubuntu should work properly and it didn't. So now I
wait for Gutsy Gibbon and hope that this is sorted by then.

My system is:

AMD AthonXP 2500+
Nvidia GeForce 6600GT
Mainboard Asus A7N8X-E
Monitor Viewsonic 19" G90f+

As reported I was stuck with a maximum resolution of 800x600 and 60Hz. I
edited the Xorg to fix this, alt-ctrl-backspace but the changes didn't take
effect. The F4 at the begining didn't work either. I set the resolution to
1024x768.

This isn't the first time I have had this problem with Ubuntu. It was
present in Dapper too from memory.

Others are reporting similar problems.

I have ordered the Fiesty CD so I will try again then. I will hopefully
remember to save a copy of Xorg to submit.

All I know is that I was really annoyed at not being able to change screen
resolutions. Neither with the default Nvidia drivers nor with the installed
Nvidia drivers when trying to test the Beryl Cube. As I was running a live
CD I alt-ctrl-backspace but that didn't affect the resolution.

I tried to install Ubuntu but the install window was TOO large. So the
"ok/next" button was off screen. I later learned about Alt F7 and thought I
am not going to waste my time any further with this version of Ubuntu.

I frankly don't understand how such a bug can have made it undetected during
testing. The 6600GT is a popular card. Viewsonic are a popular monitor.
Nothing unique about the hardware. No reason for this not to work.

I hope you can fix this as it completely ruined my Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn
experience completely. My first impression of Fiesty Fawn is that it Failed
- the screen resolution doesn't work and the install window with the locked
in 800x600 max is too big.

Cheers.
