Thanks, Robert, for reviewing the lightdm.log output. I´m sure you are right - this is mainly an xorg issue.

This problem is definitely still happening on this Averatec laptop. I reinstalled xscreensaver-gl, version 5.14-1ubuntu1, carefully set the delay for the screensaver to 10 minutes, and selected AntSpotlite. Within a few minutes the system completely locked up. I had to shut the system down with the power switch to continue. After rebooting, I clicked on the xfce Settings Manager, selected the Screensaver Icon, and quickly selected another screensaver to keep the system from locking up again.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 186103] Re: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280)
Aeb1barfo - so far the fixes that appear in 11.04 natty haven't been backported to 10.04 LTS - I think there is one more point release of the LTS, but don't know if this has enough priority for anyone to actually fix it. For now, post-installation repairs like installing an xorg.conf file may be the only way to get the login screen right. I am now running Xubuntu 11.10 beta-2 on my Averatec laptop, and that works well. Previously it was working well with Ubuntu 11.04. So the repairs to the Openchrome driver are in those versions. Also I've run Ubuntu 11.10 (about alpha-2) from a live CD, but didn't install it, since I don't like Unity at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186103 Title: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openchrome/+bug/186103/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have just installed 64-bit 11.04 Natty on this system, and will not make any further changes until the next LTS release comes out, assuming that release is acceptable. This is a system I am relying on, so I really can't afford to experiment any more on it. Note that I was unable to run the system after I finally installed 10.04.3 (as described above). I might be able to try nouveau under 11.04, but I'm still restoring large amounts of data and a large web site to the computer. I'm not going to change the operating system. Also, it's unlikely that I will continue with Ubuntu on this system in the future. I have been terribly unimpressed with 11.10, so far.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 495553] Re: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid
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 added 'text' and 'vga=771'. 'text' brings the system up in a shell, so I am able to add an xorg.conf file, and 'vga=771' gives me a text display which fits on the screen (the default goes off the bottom of the screen). Then I used scp to copy a basic xorg.conf file, specifying admissible screen modes, into /etc/X11. Having done that, I ran gdm to start the X display. It came up properly. I've attached xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log, and Xorg.0.log.old in a tar file. This bug was fixed in 11.04 and 11.10 releases - it should have been backported, as suggested in #166. ** Attachment added: xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log, Xorg.0.old https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/495553/+attachment/2226573/+files/xorg.tar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 Title: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openchrome/+bug/495553/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

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.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 495553] Re: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid
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 dialog shows up, in the lower right of the screen (center of 1600x1200 image), which means the system tried to start gdm, failed, and showed a login dialog. Trying to log in with 'ubuntu' and a blank password results in the same thing happening again after several seconds. So this RC of 10.04.3 is unusable on this system. I wasn't able to access any files generated during system startup. This system has 11.04 installed, and works with the 11.10 alpha-2 live cd, also with the 2011-07-05 daily build of Kubuntu 11.10. BTW this 11.10 Kubuntu is the first Kubuntu I've tried on this laptop, since the earlier screen-size problem results in Kubuntu's panel being off-screen on the bottom. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 Title: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openchrome/+bug/495553/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 747069] Re: [natty beta-1] Screen flashes on and of every few seconds with nouveau driver
My problem was with the live CD (I have FreeBSD taking up the whole disk drive, and don't want to install Ubuntu in this system). There doesn't seem to be an easy way to choose the desktop, since the system auto-logins to Gnome when it starts up, without showing a login screen (unless there is a problem with that, which is another question). With FreeBSD, and I believe Fedora 14, there is a way to choose the vesa driver, which doesn't do this. Under Ubuntu, you would have to boot into text mode, create an xorg.conf file which chooses THAT driver, then startx.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 747069] [NEW] [natty beta-1] Screen flashes on and of every few seconds with nouveau driver
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau I tried booting the Natty 11.04 beta-1 live cd (32-bit) on a compaq presario with an nVidia chipset. The system took a long time to boot, possibly because of fairly low RAM and possibly because the hard disk is currently only formatted with a FreeBSD partition so that no swap space is available. However, the bug I'm reporting is that once the system logs in to a Gnome screen, the screen blanks for a second or so every few seconds. Looking at Xorg.0.log (in attached bug.tgz file) it looks like noveau and vesa drivers are loaded, along with various other drivers including frame buffer drivers. I previously had Fedora 14 installed, which displayed the same problem with the default nvidia driver, but worked ok at the Samsung SyncMaster 570S panel's max 1024x768 resolution using a vesa driver. Likewise on FreeBSD a vesa driver works better than the nv driver (which has another resolution problem). ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -rd Description:Ubuntu Natty (development branch) Release:11.04 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:0.0.16+git20110107+b795ca6e-0ubuntu6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-7.39-generic 2.6.38 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-7-generic i686 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,mousepoll,vpswitch,regex,animation,snap,expo,move,compiztoolbox,place,grid,imgpng,gnomecompat,wall,ezoom,workarounds,staticswitcher,resize,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,scale,session,unityshell] CompositorRunning: None DRM.card0.DVI.D.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: Off modes: edid-base64: DRM.card0.VGA.1: status: connected enabled: enabled dpms: On modes: 1024x768 800x600 800x600 848x480 640x480 edid-base64: Date: Fri Apr 1 08:02:46 2011 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: natty DistroVariant: ubuntu GdmLog1: GdmLog2: GraphicsCard: nVidia Corporation C51 [GeForce 6150 LE] [10de:0241] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:2a3e] LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal - Beta i386 (20110330) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 058f:6362 Alcor Micro Corp.

My next experiment will be to boot in text mode, add an xorg.conf file based on the one originally generated by the PC-BSD live CD, and see if that works with the vesa driver.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 186103] Re: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280)
As of today, there has been a regression: in the absence of an xorg.conf file, the initial resolution is again set to 1600x1200. It's possible to use the Monitors dialog to set the res. to 1024x768, but before that is done, the login screen's bottom panel is inaccessible, so that the GUI mode can't be set. I am now using xorg.conf again, but this is not a good solution, as it requires an expert to create it. I'm attaching a tar file with a list of current packages, xorg.conf, and various versions of Xorg.0.log, with and without xorg.conf.

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.

** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg-server + [ Comments added for Natty 11.04 alpha version } [ Comments added for Maveric beta versions ] It is now impossible to boot and log in on this system from the beta-2 live CD - see comment #111. THIS NOW SEEMS TO BE 'CURED' by running kernels from Karmic - see comments past #100. A Framebuffer driver seems to be involved - see comment #109. I installed Lucid on the Averatec 3280 laptop from the Alternate CD on 10 December 2009. I then updated the system with apt-get several times. On booting this morning, the logical screen origin was shifted to the center of the screen. With some difficulty, I was able to log in, and to try to find a solution. After the original installation, my login screen was too large, so that the login window was of center. It looks like some bugs have been reported about that issue, such as #231555 and @214704; I haven't looked at the details. I have had similar problems with earlier releases on this laptop. However, once logged in, the screen resolution was correct (1024x768 on this laptop's panel). Adding an xorg.conf file seemed to cure the login screen size problem. The split-screen problem only appeared this morning, after an update the previous evening. I will attach a photo of the screen and any further details a bit later - it's a bit difficult to edit this report with the screen split with the browser's left and right margins in the middle of the screen. Also, I now get a blank screen when trying to ctrl-alt-F3 etc to a tty console - this did not happen with the original installation of Lucid, yesterday.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 495553] Re: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid
A serious problem has just arisen after an update today. I did the update while the system was started, but before logging in (I switched to a text console while the login screen was appearing). Once I logged in, in safe mode, the 2 icons I'd created on the desktop were bouncing up and down, and neither top nor bottom panel showed. Then I rebooted. The login dialog was bouncing up and down so I could not log in. I was still able to switch to a text console and collect some data. By the way, the screen resolution seemed to have been set properly, but I'm not completely sure about that.

The behavior described above was with the Openchrome driver build from source a couple of days ago. I then reinstalled the driver from the repository, and the only difference in behavior was that the initial resolution after booting turns out to be 1600x1200; and that can be changed by installing an xorg.conf file.

Note that further comments were added to Bug #689377 today, as further problems appeared. I don't think these problem were due to the display driver, but they do affect testing of display problems somewhat, and vice versa. For example, if the xorg.conf file is removed, it's not possible to go into safe mode, because the selection of safe and other modes is in a bottom bar, which is off the screen when the system tries to start in 1600x1200 mode. So THIS bug is very much alive in the sense that being able to get a useable screen mode at initial startup is important. On another system, poor resolution detection at startup resulted in a 800x600 screen on a 1024x768 monitor - this was acceptable, since adding an xorg.conf file meant that only the login screen was at the lower resolution, and that was quite useable. But this is not. The situation would be much worse with KDE, with the panel at the bottom of the screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 Title: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 186103] Re: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280)
As of 11.04 Natty Ubuntu, the remaining problem is that the initial display is set at 1600x1200. For Ubuntu with Gnome, the System/Preference/Monitors dialog is accessible, and the screen res can be changed to 1024x768 (see last few comments in bug #495553). For the unichrome display, only Gnome works for Ubuntu Natty, as this hardware doesn't support 3d acceleration. This would be a more serious problem with kubuntu, where settings are accessible from a lower panel, which is off the screen. What is really needed for this kind of hardware problem is manual setting of the initial X screen resolution, such as 'fb1024x76' in the boot command line in some distros. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186103 Title: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280) ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 495553] Re: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid
Ubuntu 11.04 'natty narwhal' seems to work well on this system, which is pleasantly surprising! I downloaded the ISO 2 days ago, and burnt a DVD from the image. As before, the live CD was unable to determine the actual resolution of the screen (1024x768, Unichrome controller) and set a higher resolution. However the SystemPreferencesMonitors dialog was accessible, so I was able to set the proper resolution, and the copy in the xorg.conf file I have used previously, log out, then log in again in 1024x768 resolution. I was able to switch to text consoles and back without any problems. So I decided to install the 11.04 system (instead of Debian Lenny, which I had been using). On rebooting, setting 1024x768 resolution, and installing the xorg.conf file, the installed system worked properly. I note that Unity does not work with this display and the Openchrome driver, but Gnome works (with a nagging popup reminding me about that!). After some confusion about the popup, I finally found that I was able to use the SystemAdministrationLogin Screen dialog to set the legacy Gnome UI as the default. I left a comment about that on the Ubuntu forum. After that, installation of Apache2, MySQL, PHP5, openssh-server, and other software I use frequently went well. I'll keep updating 11.04 until release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 Title: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

This problem persists with the post-RC 07-oct-2010 build. Linux distro/version and kernel version Ubuntu 10.10 Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux model name : Mobile AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 2800+ cpu MHz : 800.000 If I just boot the live CD, without trying to boot into text mode, eventually the screen for choosing 'trying Ubuntu' versus installing it shows, in 1600x1200 mode - so as before this dialog appears in the lower left-hand corner of the 1024x768 screen. If I then click on the 'trying' button, eventually the screen comes up in an unusual state - somewhat similar to an early 'split-screen' bug (shown in an early comment in this bug report) but completely unusable - nothing but purple horizontal lines, with a clear dividing line down the center. However, if I hit ESC right after booting, and use F6 followed by ESC to get an editable command line, and end that with -- text (as in a couple of comments back), I eventually end up booting in text mode. At that point, I can create passwords for root and ubuntu, install openssh- server, copy an xorg.conf file from my Debian installation into /etc/X11, and start X with 'gdm start'. THEN the Gnome screen will eventually appear in 1024x768 mode. (The xorg.conf file is attached a few comments back). (Note that Debian Lenny works fine on this computer, and the xorg.conf file is one I use under that distro). However, trying to switch into text mode with ctrl-alt-F2 (for example) results in a screen with what looks like huge text characters. Switching back into X seems to require F8 rather than the usual F7, which is odd. I have attached a tar file with (a) Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old before trying to switch into text mode, and (b) after trying this. (Having the openssh-server installed was helpful for doing this, so I could log in from another computer). ** Attachment added: TAR containing Xorg.0.log* from before and after text switching https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/495553/+attachment/1680704/+files/Xorg.tar -- [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

(See comment #142 for current version and boot problem information). I am able to boot from the live CD in text mode, and eventually get X to start, as follows: Boot live CD Hit ESC when the first welcome screen appears When a screen with boot choices appears, first select the language (English) and then hit F6 Hit ESC to cancel the menu which pops up, and the boot command line appears. Use backspace to remove silent splash -- from the end of the line, then enter -- text, and hit return. The system will (usually) boot, showing a login prompt after a while. At this point, I create passwords for 'ubuntu' and 'root' (for convenience) and use apt-get to install 'openssh-server', so I can access the system over my Ethernet if necessary (and I found it to be necessary) I then copied an xorg.conf file from the Debian Lenny installation on this machine, and ran 'gdm start' as root.

The 10.10 Maverick Meerkat alpha and beta live CDs will not boot fully on this Averatec 3280. I saw this most recently with the 10.10 Beta and the 10.10 daily build for 19 Sept 2010. What happens is that X login fails. When I get to the screen which asks whether to boot live or to install the new system, I select the live boot. After a few seconds, it tries to log in automatically (presumably with user 'ubuntu' and password ''). This fails: a login dialog appears after several seconds. If I enter the above username and password, it seems to accept the password, but soon fails again, presenting me with the login dialog. Note that the login dialog is off center, towards the lower right of the screen. Apparently (as many times previously), a 1600x1200 mode has been chosen. I suspect that if I were able to log in in text mode, I could copy the xorg.conf from the Debian Lenny installation on the system (which works) to the ramdisk /etc/X11 directory, and possibly enter X. I have not been able to verify the problems with text displays (F1..F6) reported above. -- [K8M800] Lucid 10.04 live-CD login failure, Screen origin shifted to center, screen wraps, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg-server + + [ Comments added for Maveric beta versions ] It is now impossible to boot and log in on this system from the beta-2 live CD - see comment #111. THIS NOW SEEMS TO BE 'CURED' by running kernels from Karmic - see comments past #100. A Framebuffer driver seems to be involved - see comment #109. I installed Lucid on the Averatec 3280 laptop from the Alternate CD on 10 December 2009. I then updated the system with apt-get several times. On booting this morning, the logical screen origin was shifted to the center of the screen. With some difficulty, I was able to log in, and to try to find a solution. After the original installation, my login screen was too large, so that the login window was of center. It looks like some bugs have been reported about that issue, such as #231555 and @214704; I haven't looked at the details. I have had similar problems with earlier releases on this laptop. However, once logged in, the screen resolution was correct (1024x768 on this laptop's panel). Adding an xorg.conf file seemed to cure the login screen size problem. The split-screen problem only appeared this morning, after an update the previous evening. I will attach a photo of the screen and any further details a bit later - it's a bit difficult to edit this report with the screen split with the browser's left and right margins in the middle of the screen. Also, I now get a blank screen when trying to ctrl-alt-F3 etc to a tty console - this did not happen with the original installation of Lucid, yesterday. This problem makes the system virtually unusable!

I have totally given up on running Ubuntu on this laptop. I have installed first Fedora 13, and now Debian Lenny. Once properly installed, the screen issues no longer occur, except that both of those systems try to run the screen in 1600x1200 mode, so that installing a custom xorg.conf is also necessary under those distros. Some distros, such as AntiX, have a boot-time option to select the initial screen resolution. IMHO ALL distros should do this.

Note for upstream: The screen resolution is not properly recognized either on Fedora 13 and on CentOS 5.5 - in all cases the system tries to start up in 1600x1200 mode, but in a Gnome system it's possible to set the res. manually, then later install an xorg.conf file. On KDE systems it's much more difficult due to the controls being off the screen at the bottom. The problem still exists for the Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat alpha-2 live CD. I now have Fedora 13 installed on this Averatec 3280 laptop. See bug #495553 and bug #196142. Also Fedora bug 518907 for the current status on this computer. I would suggest defaulting to 800x600 when the res. isn't properly detected by this driver. That is done with some other drivers when a panel's res. isn't detected possibly - then at least installing an xorg.conf file can change to the proper res. -- [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Aeb1barfo - What I was able to do with KDE (a few months ago) was to right-click on the screen to get a menu which enabled me to create a new panel at the top of the screen. Once that was done, I could right-click on the panel to add a main menu to it. From that it was possible to set the screen resolution. (What a pain!) And again - to the Openchrome project - it's best to make the resolution too low, like 800x600, when a monitor doesn't give good information about its capabilities. -- [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

The situation with Lucid on this Averatec laptop is unchanged. However today I tried booting the Fedora 13 i686 live CD. As before, with Fedora and Ubuntu, Linux started up in a 1600x1200 mode, with only the upper- left 1024x768 corner of the screen showing, but I was able to use the SystemPreferencesMonitors dialog to select the desired 1024x768 mode. What is important is that I was able to switch in and out of text consoles - ctrl-alt F2 through ctrl-alt-F6, with alt-F1 switching back to Gnome. I'll attach some files which may show up some module versions that are different from the ones on Lucid.

As of today, this bug is still in effect. The most important issue is that text consoles can't be used. Booting and screen sizing issues can be worked around, especially for the Gnome version, since the SystemPreferencesMonitor dialog is accessible from top-panel menus; that's more difficult in the case of KDE. Note that an upgraded kernel was found to solve the text console problem, but it introduced other problems. The problems seem to be the same (or worse) booting the 10.10 alpha-1 live CD.

Update: I've run the 10.10 Maverick Meerkat live CD on this Averatec 3280 system, and the remaining problems are: - I can't switch to a text console. Also that has gotten worse - on trying to switch back, I end up with a screen background but no top or bottom panels. - On booting, X starts up in 1600x1200 resolution, so it's necessary to change that after starting up.

This still does not work. The make suggests some changes to configure.ac and to Makefile.am - I did the first and the second refers to something that's in Makefile.in (I think) but isn't clear. In any event, the make fails.

The xserver-xorg-video-via driver installed ok, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Should I change or remove xorg.conf?

Hi Bartosz - I'm not seeing the 'clouded image' problem (#17) any more, but the problems noted in Bug #495553 still remain.
