Got my A21p running 8.10 fine, though I had to jump through quite a few
hoops to fix it.  First, I had to reinstall 8.04 (the original bug for
this thread was under 8.04).  It still had the issues, but I could use
Screens And Graphics in 8.04 and got a working xorg.conf after using it.
I then saved the xorg.conf to my flash drive and installed 8.10 again.
8.10 was stuck at 640x480 as usual, but pasting in the xorg.conf fixed
it.  I can post the xorg.conf if you want.

As for the three bars issue when using the Live CD, make sure you use
Safe Graphics Mode (press F4 when booting I think), that works on the
8.04 and 8.10 CD's.  I don't have time right now to test using a new CD,
but maybe I can try this weekend if there is a new CD.
