Bug is not really fixed and not invalid -- original reporter chewit just found a workaround and then marked it invalid.

Hi chewit, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

I dont think I am able to install that kernel on my current computer, because the bug will not occur since my resolution has set correctly. This bug only happens if I have not set the correct resolution, so it only happens on the live cd and first time boot up.

Thanks for your testing, it looks like the issue is due to the kernel setting wrong video modes so I'm going to bump it over to the kernel team to look at. I'm glad to hear you were able to work around the problem with the video= option.

[Bug 529387] Re: Screen goes Out of Range when boot into live cd and first time ubuntu boot up
Thanks for the input Bryce. First, I'm not currently able to get to my computer, but I will be able to next week to try those commands out. Second, I think you could be right about the EDID, that might be the problem, Windows does not seem to have an issue with it though. Third, you talk about trying out the new nouveau, this does not fix the issue! I have try this monitor with radeon, ati, intel and nv drivers, the only drivers which stops the monitor going out of range is the official binary nvidia drivers. In the past, the way I have installed Ubuntu is to unplug the monitor before boot up, and plug it back in after. It selects a resolution which the monitor can use, which is 800x600. WHY CANT UBUNTU DO THIS WITH THE MONITOR PLUGGED IN??? Please answer! The new nouveau drivers do not allow me to unplug the monitor and plug it back in, since it crashes Xorg, thats why I discovered this bug, WHICH STILL NEEDS PATCHING! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/538501 -- Screen goes Out of Range when boot into live cd and first time ubuntu boot up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529387 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 529387] Re: Screen goes Out of Range when boot into live cd and first time ubuntu boot up
Hi Chewit, yes if you could run 'apport-collect 529387', that'll automatically attach all the info needed. Thank you for taking the time to write such a clear and concise bug report. From your description I can make some pretty good guesses about what's going on. Every monitor has a circuit embedded in it which communicates the device's capabilities (refresh rates, resolutions, etc.) to the computer when asked. It is not uncommon for this information to be incorrectly encoded by the hardware manufacturer. For example, we've seen some manufactures specify the monitor's dimensions in cm's instead of in mm's, or putting in plain old typos. In some cases, for whatever reason, Linux is not able to retrieve the data. This data from the monitor is called EDID. My guess is that something is wrong with your monitor's EDID or X.org's ability to retrieve it. Unfortunately none of the files attached here include the EDID so I can't verify this. Sometimes this is included in the output of 'xrandr --auto' or listed in the Xorg.0.log file itself. In your case neither happened. There is also a pair of tools in the read-edid package to retrieve this - you run it as get-edid | parse-edid. A lot of times this just shows 'EDID fail' though so it might not be helpful. Another angle to try would be to uninstall -nvidia. With Lucid we've brought in an alternative open source video driver for NVIDIA hardware called -nouveau. This uses the linux kernel to retrieve the EDID and configure the resolution modes (this is referred to as Kernel Mode- Setting, or KMS). I doubt this will do any better with your hardware but it's worth a shot. KMS is considered the way forward and is where developer efforts are being focused. Probably the easiest way to test -nouveau would be to boot Lucid via a LiveCD. If you choose to test it on your installed system, note that you'll need to uninstall (and maybe purge) your old -nvidia installation. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting for a page about conflicts between nvidia and nouveau. Finally, I have to ask... why are you sticking with such an old video monitor? 1024x768 is such a limited resolution. If you've been able to upgrade to newer CPUs and graphics, why not a new monitor while you're at it? -- Screen goes Out of Range when boot into live cd and first time ubuntu boot up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529387 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Bit more information for you. The screen supports upto 1024x768 @ 75hz. I think the reason it goes out of range is due to Ubuntu setting the refresh at 85.
