I can confirm that this bug also applies to the Edgy final release. I tried booting: "ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso" on my system this morning (downloaded yesterday), and observed nothing but a blank screen, followed eventually by a "Sync. out of Range" message from my monitor.
Judging by the CD-ROM drive activity, the system was booting to completion, but without any display it is of course completely unusable. This seems like a very serious regression from Dapper (and earlier versions of Ubuntu) which had no problems with detecting and properly configuring my hardware: - Matrox G400 32MB Dual-Head Display Adapter - Samsung SyncMaster 763MB Monitor(s) - Gigabyte GA-7VAXP Motherboard / VIA KT400 Chipset - Athlon XP 1900 CPU I attempted to boot the system multiple times, both normally and in "Safe Mode" with the same results. I also tried modifying the F4 display option to different values. With 800 x 600 32-bit resolution (and perhaps others) rather than "VGA", I am able to see the Ubuntu logo with the activity scrollbar for a while, until it attempts to start X and I get the same blank screen/sync out of range result. I suspect that #58721 is a dup of this bug (or vice-versa). -- Edgy can't initialize display with Matrox G400 card https://launchpad.net/bugs/64853 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
