I can confirm this in Edgy on both an old Celeron 300 with a Voodoo Banshee card and on a P4 with SiS video.
I'm not sure what resolution and refresh rate it's trying to use, but the first system's monitor is a CRT limited to 800x600 @ 60 Hz. The second system uses an LCD monitor connected via VGA, which goes up to 1024x768 @ 75 Hz. My main system at home is connected by DVI and does not experience this issue. Both systems experiencing this issue switch to usable settings once X starts. -- Usplash in edgy results in out of range error https://launchpad.net/bugs/64487 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
