Oops, This: "however I've tried the Live CD with many options including "nomodeset" and "i915.modeset=1" which both result in the "out-of-range" error, and also "i915.modeset=1" which drops me to a TTY, and if I try startx I just get the error "Fatal server error: no screens found"."
Should say: however I've tried the Live CD with many options including "nomodeset" and "i915.modeset=1" which both result in the "out-of-range" error, and also "i915.modeset=0" which drops me to a TTY, and if I try startx I just get the error "Fatal server error: no screens found". One digit could make a huge difference. -- Forces low refresh rate on CRT monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/640807 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
