I finally succeeded in getting a log file from an attempt to boot the 8.10 disk. Also I was able to get the screen to start in a 1024x768 mode.
I was able to get into a console after identification of the display failed. At that point, I was able to save the Xorg.0.log file, as before. it is already attached nearer the top of this report, showing a failure to identify the screen hardware. At that point xorg.conf was empty. I was then able to copy in the 7.04 xorg.conf file and run 'startx' to start the screen. Eventually the screen initialized at 1024x768 resolution, and the usual top and bottom panels and default screen background appeared. From the log file: (--) SAVAGE(0): Chose mode 117 at 60Hz. (II) SAVAGE(0): virtualX:1024,virtualY:768 I have attached the Xorg.0.log file from after the screen started. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log after copying in 7.04 xorg.conf and running startx" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19627849/Xorg.0.lognew -- No signal with Samsung SyncMaster 750s and ProSavage8 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
