When monitor is connected via VGA D-sub cable, everything works great!  When 
monitor is connected via DVI cable (w/ DVI-HDMI adapter), monitor shows 
"unsupported display mode".  

FWIW, this exact combo works GREAT under gutsy (even under HDMI).


more info:  I'm rebooting in between swapping cables, and at no point in time 
are both cables connected to the machine.  Sequence is to power down, swap VGA 
for DVI cable (or vice-versa), power up, see BIOS and then ubuntu splash 
screens, then when the login screen should come up (I hear the bongo sound, and 
can log in blind or administer via SSH) that's when I get unsupported display 
mode.  So I'm not crashing at all, it's just not exactly working quite right.
