Greetings, I am trying out various Linux Live CD's, Ubuntu Live
Release being the latest. For some reason, it's unable to detect what
video mode my laptop requires, and presents me with a list of "mode"
options from which I am supposed to choose the correct one. My
question, how do I determine what mode I need??
TIA for any help.
Best regards.

Any of the ones displayed are "susposed" to work. If you are going to be
booting in the GUI mode, as most of the "live" CDs do, then it isn't too
critical, as your selection will affect the CLI, and the wrong one means
you will be able to read the boot messages. If all else fails, pick the
first one offered. If I remember right, it should give you 25 X 80 text
mode.
