What has gotten really obnoxious in the latest revisions of Kbuntu is that the HARDWARE MODIFICATIONS panel in the main menu is gone. I used to be able to force the proper display driver and monitor ( yes, it gave you a warning ) and reboot X/the system.
That is an example of forcing something that was easy to be much more harder to do. I have had to drop back to the GNOME display. I prefer it to KDE4 anyway. The other way to fix this Kubutu issue has been to use my older distro CDs and upgrade. --- On Sat, 7/10/10, Peter Belew <186...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: From: Peter Belew <186...@bugs.launchpad.net> Subject: [Bug 186103] Re: [K8M800] Panel on K8M800 is not supported (Averatec 3280) To: aeb1ba...@yahoo.com Date: Saturday, July 10, 2010, 10:18 AM This still applies up through Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat 10.10 alpha-2: The initial screen resolution is set to 1600x1200, so that only the upper- left 1024x768 corner of the screen is visible. It's necessary to use the System>Preferences>Monitors dialog to set the resolution. In addition, the text console problem described in bug #495553 still occurs up through the 10.10 alpha-2 live CD. The resolution detection problem occurs for Fedora 13 and CentOS 5.5, but the text console problem does not occur for those distros. The screen resolution detection problem on my laptop has been reported to Fedora Bugzilla as bug #518907. I now have Fedora 13 installed on the laptop.
