My solution under Intrepid: modified /boot/grub/menu.lst added vga=0x0323 to defoptions
modified /etc/usplash.conf: xres=1024 was: 1440 yres=768 was: 900 Note: vga=0x0365 did not work even though my default display is 1440x900. During reboot this produced a screen of vga mode options for me to choose from, and an option to scan. I selected "scan" and the result did not offer any modes in the 1440x900 resolution. I ended up selecting the best 1024x768 mode available. I did not need to mess with modules vga16fb and vesafb in any manner. I am wondering if during the installation of Intrepid, the system was unable to properly detect my resolution and so excluded the vga line from the menu.lst file? Just a guess...probably wrong though. Based off of what I observed today, I can't help but think that this bug has a hook into the default display resolution and the ATI fglrx driver. For the moment my TTYs are working. -- Blank ttys when using vesafb (vga=xxx) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129910 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
