I have an old IBM i1300-1171 Thinkpad with a Silicon Motion SM712 LynxEM+ video controller with the same problem. It appears that the video memory is overrunning and causing horizontal displacement of some pixels after being upgraded to ubuntu 10.04. I have tried the boot options of vga=normal and nomodeset with no luck. If I try vga=788 the desktop never shows. These are the only things tried so far. If you need log files and such I will try to locate them but may need some help with their locations. Thanks
