Well, I guess I'm talking to myself, but the problem is between the EDID of the monitor and the Ubuntu drivers for the i865 graphics controller: when I leave the monitor off during boot and grub loading, turn it on afterwards, then the monitor is recognised and fully functional. XP does not have this problem...so this is a development bug if anyone finds it worthy enough.
