Dear Bryce, Thank you for your email.
The bug us still an issue (I am now using 9.10) although it is somewhat different behaviour than when I first reported it. Note it only occurs upon power-up or reboot, so I tend to leave my PC on standby each time so the display is guaranteed and this is my work-around. The symptoms are on power-up that in say 30% of cases it struggles to 'see ' the display (other times it does work OK but takes longer than it should). When it fails, the monitor either remains dark or sometimes has a fine 'snow' affect akin to fine white noise (desktop icons all present). It then tries to recover by 'blanking off' display drivers for a few sec's and tries again. It either recovers after sometime (e.g a couple of minutes) OR I grow impatient and switch off monitor and on again (which only helps occasionally) or reboot. I recall reading on a forum that this was due to the way the Samsung 205 reported its state, if I can find this page I will forward link. When I return to my office (I am away) I will forward the Xorg file as requested. Thanks again (and despite hiccups, I am sold on Linux and Ubuntu!)
