Public bug reported:
I just did a fresh install of 8.04 32 bit. After the installation, The display
does not work. I get the flashing random colors. Trying to get to console
using Alt F1 it hangs.
I am using Sun workstation w2100 with nvidia fx5200 and dell 20in wide screen
monitor. The beta version was working but very slow ( xorg was using70-90% of
one of the cpus)
Ubuntu 7.10 was working good.
here is the xorg.conf information ( it seems it did not configure the
video card )
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
