No real change in effect, Unity, GNOME 3.x, and Cinnamon still unusable.
Hardware was changed to a BioStar N68S38 motherboard/Athlon II x3 processor/8G
RAM/Graphics: Card: NVIDIA C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]
X.Org: 1.15.1 drivers: nouveau (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution:
1280x1024@60.0hz
GLX Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on NV4C GLX Version: 2.1 Mesa 10.1.3
Monitor: Etronix 1701B 17" 1280x1024 LCD display does not give proper edid
I can now sometimes get a stable display on one of the three above DEs.until I
attempt to actually open menu items, then the display freezes or goes for
repeated pattern of dots on the screen, in either case the display freezes
after a few seconds, requiring hard reset or power cycling
Knoppix with LXDE & Compiz works fine, as does Bodhi 2.x and 3.x and Xubuntu
and Mate have remained working with no problems.
I am thinking that all three of the above do not handle the case where the edid
is not returned from the monitor to the computer acceptably.
My only other monitor had been an old NEC Multisync II (800x600), but I
obtained a Sansui model SLED 2900 I television/monitor and seeking confirmation.
