I have a Fujitsu Amilo Pi 1536, Core Duo, ATI x1400, resolution 1280x800
Ubuntu 7.04 (final) Desktop CD x86

I have this bug. More precisely, this one (as It seems to be 2 similar
bugs around):

"No valid modes left. Trying less strict filter...
Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting"

The horizontal and vertical refresh workaround doesn't work for me, and
simply reconfiguring xserver-xorg doesn't work either.

I have found a workaround. Hope it helps somebody. (See this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/103945/comments/1)

I  got to start X with a resolution of 640x480, by deleting all the other modes 
in xorg.conf (or by "sudo dpkg-reconfe xserver-xorg", and choosing only the 
640x480 mode).
With this, I reached the live CD desktop and I managed to complete the 
installation.
After that (and with wifi internet working), I installed the propietary fglrx, 
and choose the 1280x800 native resolution).
