I confirm that "Safe graphics mode" works for me in Kubuntu 7.04 Heard 3
(amd64).
Thanks for fixing the bug.

I've uploaded robepisc's patch, although it'll probably be for Herd 4
rather than Herd 3 at this point.

This is how you can test the previous patch with QEMU:
1. create an empty floppy image (dd if=/dev/zero of=fd.img bs=1k count=1440)
2. format it with mkfs.vfat
3. loop mount it somewhere
4. put xserver-xorg.config.patch there
5. umount it
6. boot a Feisty Herd1 desktop CD image with qemu:

I don't understand how it is "undecided". It probably affects 15% of
everyone who tries to install Ubuntu. The 15% includes people with
NVIDIA cards that cause garbling with the nv driver, and other cards
that do not work properly by default.

Just took some screeshots with QEMU and added them to the wiki as you asked.
I hope they are ok.
Thank you Tormod for your nice work on EdgyKnownIssues!
I think it is very useful for both users and developers.

Same problem as above, impossible to start the Edgy 6.10 live CD in safe
mode.
!!! I find that a very Crittical bug and I don't understand why the importance
is this undecide!!!
Don't forget that run the safe mode is vey important as it is the only way, for
a lot of people, to suceed to install

AFAIK, point releases will only happen for LTS releases, such as 6.06
LTS. 6.10 isn't a LTS, so it won't have a point release (6.10.1). This
was the case with all the releases before 6.06.

I agree that this it is very important that this bug gets fixed very
soon, and hopefully that it'll be fixed on the 6.10.1 cd.
I the mean time there is a workaround here:

Wow
I just attempted to install 6.10 on a box with a Voodoo 3 3000 in it
just to play around and try Kubuntu out. Not fixing this before release
wasn't cool, it affects a lot of people. I don't understand how the
severity of this bug is undecided...it's pretty severe! Affecting

In fact.
The debconf script of xserver-xorg, when executed, sees that "xforcevesa" flag
is in use and sets vesa as the default driver.
So far so good.
But then it makes a probe of the video chipset, and if it finds a known one,
overrides the default (vesa) with that one (in my case, sis)!
The so
xorg has configuration for this which doesn't seem to work correctly.

I confirm the problem with "safe graphics mode".
I have an NVidia GF 6600 AGP graphics card, which does not work with "nv"
driver. It works well with proprietary "nvidia" driver and "vesa".
When booting 6.10 beta there is no difference to me between standard boot and

Still present in Edgy Beta!
Since "Safe graphics mode" is prominent in the LiveCD boot screen and
it's the only hope for people with a buggy graphics card, I think it's
very important that it does what it's supposed to do in the stable
release.
