Public bug reported: Gutsy Tribe 4 20070811 and 20070814 do not support the IBM Thinkpad R31 LCD graphics screen in normal or in safe graphics mode. Live CD results in a graphics screen flickering between grey and black. Ctrl-Alt-F1 text mode seems to operate O.K.
Note Gutsy 20070630 supports the LCD screen normally using i810 driver for Intel 83830 CGC, generic monitor 1024x768, default depth 24. 20070813 xorg.conf reports: Generic Video Card (! should have recognized Intel 8380!) Default depth 24 No screen resolution at all! The text in xorg.conf says to try the command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg results in: "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20070815014500" and then drops back to the [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ prompt without running the dpkg-reconfigure. If I remove the -phigh, dpkg-reconfigure runs. Using the driver i810, memory 32768, 1024x768, depth 24 the screen came up with error: "User Switcher" has quit unexpectedly. Firefox ran O.K. to the internet. I'd guess that Gutsy 20070814 has reverted to an older Debian version of Xwindows that doesn't even recognize -phigh, prior to Gutsy and even Feisty which is installed and running (with patches) on the subject R31. Let me see if I can attach the Xorg.0.log.
