Marking 'invalid'. In the latest Hardy I was able to start vesafb, on the exact same machine, so the refresh issue seems to have went away. Not that vesafb works out of the box, you need to hack a bit with the initramfs or start it by hand... (It shows 60Hz now, as it should.) ** Changed in: linu

Confirmed: bug is still present in Hardy kernel 2.6.24-1. After installing the kernel and rebooting, the splash continues to appear (centred as usual), then the screen goes black with a blinking cursor in top-left. KDM/X doesn't start. Had to reboot in Recovery mode (no VGA=) to run X and also

No worries Leann, I'll do it tonight (in about 10 hours). I think this issue is actually pretty much the same as 129910 (tagged Critical) anyway, since that is certainly the effect I see here. But then, I didn't raise either this bug or 129910, and I don't know if Bugdan or Joshua would agree wit

Just a note that I opened a new task against the actively developed kernel. However, I'm closing this report against linux-source-2.6.22 this bug does not meet the criteria for a stable release. You can learn more about the stable release update process at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpd

The Hardy Heron kernel was recently uploaded for testing. We'd really appreciate it if you could try testing with this newer kernel and verify if this issue still exists. Unfortunately, the Hardy Heron Alpha1 LiveCD was released with the older 2.6.22 kernel. You'll have to manually install the n

Same here, a desktop with Radeon graphics driving a Philips 190B LCD (on the VGA cable, not DVI). Interestingly, if I restart the PC and select an older kernel from before I upgraded to Gutsy (2.6.20-16-generic) then it's okay. I'm starting with the following kernel options in both cases: vga=7

I'm not using 915res anymore, precisely because of the new intel driver. But the initial bug report was about the console settings, and I'm still having that problem. -- vesafb sets the refresh rate too high for some LCDs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127168 You received this bug notification

Btw if you use new Intel (-intel) driver 915resolution isn't needed anymore. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.22 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: linux-meta => linux-source-2.6.22 -- vesafb sets the refresh rate too high for some LCDs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127168 You received this bug notifi

Hi, I'm trying to boot the Kubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5 live CD (AMD64), but X starts my nvidia GE-FORCE 7300LE at a refresh rate too high for my (old) analog CRT (max 60 Hz @ 1024x768), so the monitor can't sync. I tried to change the boot options (VGA resolution, safe graphical mode) but nothing help
