Hi,
I'm trying to boot the Kubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5 live CD (AMD64), but X starts my 
nvidia GE-FORCE 7300LE at a refresh rate too high for my (old) analog CRT (max 
60 Hz @ 1024x768), so the monitor can't sync.
I tried to change the boot options (VGA resolution, safe graphical mode) but 
nothing helped. Maybe there will
be a "vga=xxx" boot option that works, but I can't guess what.
In my opinion, when the display capabilities can't be detected, it would be 
better (and safer) to start X with more conservative settings because it would 
allow to change them later to fit the user's preferences. It's much more 
difficult to change back those settings when your display is out of synch!

Saluti.
