I have a pc which needs to run the live CD (of 8.04 RC) in safe graphics mode. Which is ok, no problem. However, it is the sort of machine which some new users might want to use the windows installer wubi, to install it inside windows.
I tried this, because wubi is a great method for some newcomers, and I talk to a lot of them. However, I could not see any safe graphics mode option for the wubi install, and after the install, the display was blank - no surprise perhaps. As an 'experienced' user, trusting that everything was working and knowing what to expect anyway, I can login without seeing any display and then I can use ctrl alt F1 and examine /etc/X11/xorg.conf But - I can see nothing in this file, in hardy, that I can usefully edit........ The recent approach to xorg.conf content seems to be different to that used in the past. A safe graphics option in wubi would be the best solution probably however, I would like to know what I could do using CL to manage the graphics in 8.04 now. Any suggestions please? -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
