Thank you for replying.

How do I access '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' and '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' on a
machine to which I don't have a prompt on the screen?
I looked at <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277724";>bug
277724</a> as well, which is linked from bug 210340 that you mention.
Unlike that case, I was not able to install 8.10beta even if I
disconnected my second display (the 1280x1024). The process hanged at a
line saying something about bluetooth. I have no bluetooth on that box.

I'll have physical access to that box again next Wednesday or Thursday.
I can run whatever diagnostic you ask me to run. It boots with Knoppix
5.1.1 (though the two displays show the same 1024x768 screen). It used
to work with Ubuntu 8.04, but I have wiped out that partition. I can try
to reinstall it if it is of help.
