1. Running the installer in "Safe graphics mode" seems not only to run the installer in safe graphics mode, but also to install either karmic or lucid alpha in a safe graphics mode in which the freezes don't occur. Some packages, like Gnometris (Quatropassel in Luicd) behave strangely in safe graphics mode, to an extent that makes them unuseable. Other are hardly affected.
2. Anyone know of a way, with Karmic or Luicid, to invoke safe graphics mode on bootup of an installed system so that the system is live long enough to do the kernal testing suggested by Geir? -- [i845G] Karmic stops responding a few minutes after log in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456902 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
