Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
The vesa driver used for the safe graphics boot from Ubuntu 7.10 does
freeze the VIA P4M900 graphics system. The same freeze happens when
bulletproof X takes control.
Work around for installation is to use the text based modus with fixed
VGA resolution.
With help of dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg the X driver can be set to
openchrome, which works.
When trying to configure X with displayconfig-gtk, the graphical system
may fail to start and bullet proof X takes over. This freezes the
graphics system.
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
