[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 495553] Re: [K8M800] Screen origin shifted to center, screen wraps, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid with openchrome driver

I have done a complete dist-upgrade to Lucid, so I should be using everything in its Lucid version. I only don’t have removed Karmic’s kernel from the install—it is still there where it was before, in /boot, along with Lucid kernels. I always keep old kernels for a while when I upgrade to alpha/bet

I can confirm this behaviour. It only applies to kernels from the 2.6.32 series. Kernels from the 2.6.31 series are not affected: if I start this machine with 2.6.31-20 from Karmic (this machine has been upgraded from Karmic), the split-screen issue doesn’t appear. My machine is a BenQ Joybook R
