I was able to get the 2011-07-20 build of 10.04.3 to boot, using roughly the same tricks that I used for another system described in bug#707755, on a Compaq system. For the live-CD boot line, I hit F6 and selected 'nomode' set. For the rest of the command line, I removed 'quiet' and 'splash' and

At any rate, even if the repaired driver isn't added to the .3 or .4 release of 10.04 LTS, this provides a workaround to allow someone to install this LTS version in a system like this. It's a little beyond what a newbie can be expected to do, though! -- You received this bug notification

I downloaded the 16 July 2011 build of 10.04.3, and apparently the repaired driver has not been backported to this release. Two issues: 1. the screen comes up in 1600x1200 or something like that, so the bottom right of that screen image does not show on the 1024x768 panel, as before. 2. A login

Bartosz: What I would really like to happen is to have these fixes backported to 10.04.1 LTS, so that they might be released by 10.04.2 update. Is that reasonable? 11.04 seems very unstable, and is not useable at the moment. Perhaps I should repartition the HD and set up a dual boot between 10.04
