I've tried Hardy and the last Intrepid with this chipset. Hardy only works attaching a lot of parameters in the kernel starting line and yet if you try to restart X or just switching to another terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F*) the screen hangs just the same as the Erwin Michel picture. But I could correct it after installing the OpenChrome driver. There's a script that does all the work: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=485646 I don't know how it works, but perhaps the Ubuntu team should update the openchrome driver. I've tried with the latest VIA unichrome drivers, but it did not work.
With Intrepid, no way at all. These strange draws always hang the screen, no matter what you do to try a correction. -- Ubuntu LiveCD doesn't start with a "VIA Chrome9 HC" graphic card and, when Ubuntu is installed, it works only with VESA drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179675 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
