After upgrading Karmic to Lucid, the splash screen is part-garbled and comes up in very low res and few colours. It looks like it's picking a bad modeline for the monitor, which loses the bottom part of the display. Occasionally it will also jump into the failsafe X dialog on yet another corrupted screen which seems wrapped over the right edge of the monitor. If I simply choose restart X, it works, but then since I have gdm installed it seems to prefer that over my normal kdm. The desktop then comes up in some very low resolution that I can't correct. If I remove the splash boot option it'll all work fine.
