I'm downloading the Karmic alpha 4 ISO right now. Also I downloaded and installed the new vesa driver -
r...@billy:/home/peter/crash# dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-vesa_2.2.1-1ubuntu1~hardy_i386.deb (Reading database ... 112177 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace xserver-xorg-video-vesa 1:1.3.0-4ubuntu4 (using xserver-xorg-video-vesa_2.2.1-1ubuntu1~hardy_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement xserver-xorg-video-vesa ... Setting up xserver-xorg-video-vesa (1:2.2.1-1ubuntu1~hardy) ... and specified vesa in xorg.conf. Now I get a blank, black screen when X starts. However, I can still switch to a text console or log in remotely. I've attached the resulting Xorg.0.log file.
