** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I am using a AMD 64 with ASUS K8V-MX motherboard. It has onchip VIA
  display card (K8M890CE chipset)
  
  When I boot into the third alpha release of Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty
  Jackalope" live cd, the computer freeze at the point of starting the
  x.org server. Everything locks up (cannot kill x, or switch to a
  terminal). I have to reset the machine.
  
  I had the same problem with hardy 8.10 live cd.
  
  I rebooted and select the "safe graphics mode" in the grub boot option
  (vesa drivers). This time it did not freeze but the display way totally
  unreadable with a huge lot of flickering happening. I tried to take a
  screenshot, but the screenshot comes up correctly.
  
  I then change the resolution to 1024*768 in System > Preference > Screen
  resolution and now it works correctly. But the redraw rate is very slow
  and I have to wait for sometime for the application to redraw itself
  correctly.
  
  Also the refresh rate is not shown at all in the Screen resolution
  settings. (Screenshot attached).
  
  I have also attached the kernel log file, x.org configuration file and
  boot log file. I have change anything except selecting the vesa mode in
  the main boot option and changing the screen resolution to 1024*768
