** Description changed: + Card: VIA VT8378 Integrated Video + module version: via 0.2.901 + Linux version 2.6.24-19-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7) + + X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90 + Release Date: 5 September 2007 + X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 + Build Operating System: Linux Ubuntu (xorg-server 2:1.4.1~git20080131-1ubuntu9.2) + Current Operating System: Linux ubuntu 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:43:41 UTC 2008 i686 + Build Date: 13 June 2008 01:08:21AM + I've tried to install Ubuntu 7.10 on 2 different laptops produced by MiTAC and both were unable to load Live CD: the computers froze after the Ubuntu logo + progress bar with a blank screen. In the case of upgrading to Ubuntu 7.10 from 7.04 via Update Manager, the computers did it but were unable to boot: the progress bar stops loading at around 70% and the laptops' caps-lock led starts blinking. 1 out 5 reboot attempts are successful and make Ubuntu boot properly on the computers. Both computers use VIA chipsets, this might be a driver or hardware compatibility issue. Ubuntu 7.04 worked perfectly on both computers earlier on. -- openchrome driver unable to find video mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158999 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
