Mike, In response to your above comment, I am experiencing the same problem as Åskar with the Hardy release candidate. I did follow your directions ("sudo rm /etc/usplash.conf && sudo aptitude reinstall usplash"), which resulted in my /etc/usplash.conf changing to the following: - # Usplash

Hi Åskar, this issue should no longer exist in Hardy. Note the "Fix Released" status. The patch will work fine for new users but for beta users, the configuration file needs to be recreated. Have you followed the instructions? The old configuration file needs to be deleted and usplash must be reins

Actually, according to Colin comments, it does not work correctly yet when installing the computer with ubiquity, so further work is needed. However, it won't work for the alternate CD for Hardy. The real solution to that bug (automatic probing) will have to wait for Intrepid. -- probe screen res

Thanks Colin, great work so far. After a "sudo rm /etc/usplash.conf && sudo aptitude reinstall usplash", it looks great. I agree that this is probably sufficient for Hardy, however does this only work with LiveCD installs? What about Wubi? It seems like most of the people that couldn't fix this ma

You have to be very careful when using ddcprobe; xresprobe used to have a slew of hardware-dependent hacks to avoid problems. I'm not comfortable with doing that for 8.04. It won't be necessary, either; although my first attempt at using xdpyinfo failed I'm confident I can fix it. -- probe screen

Is there something wrong with using ddcprobe in postinst (whether X is running or otherwise)? Seems to work fine for me, and gives me more information than I can shake a stick at with no interruptions to the graphical output at all. ** Attachment added: "unnamed" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/
