  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  Hi all, 
   I couldn't boot normally when I wanted to install Intrepid using the Live 
CD. 
  
  I had to do the following procedure :-
  
  a. Booted and tried booting into the Intrepid Live CD
  b. Failed, then rebooted, this time used F2 to boot into safe-graphics mode. 
  c. The screen wouldn't fit in the 640*480 screen and had to use tab and 
trial-and-error to install the OS. 
  d. Booted into 640*480 screen
  e. Did updates and rebooted again.
  f.  Rebooted and still it was 640*480 
  g. Then edited /boot/grub/menu.lst and deleted where it says xforcevesa
  h. Then I'm able to enjoy the whole range of resolutions. 
  
  What is expected behavior :-
  
  a. The Live CD should have booted without going into safe-graphics mode. 
  b. Even if it goes into safe-graphics mode it should give me the whole screen 
on my CRT monitor 
  c. After installation it should not have booted me into 640*480 
  
  I dunno if this workaround is something which would have to be performed
  every time I install.
  
  Please lemme know what other info. is needed.
