Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-ati
I installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 8.04 canditate relase using the net
install procedure on. After the install the X would not come up and I
land on the terminal prompt. I had a looked at the Xorg.log.0 it has
the error "(EE) Failed to load module "vesa" which seems to be a
failsafe option. Xorg.log.old has the following error (EE) RADEON(0):
No connected devices found!
The thing is if I plug an external monitor (lcd) in the vga output, the
X comes up at a resolution of 1280x768 and I get the gdm login on the
laptop screen. I would expect it to have the correct resolution
1152x768. The external monitor reminds blank.
