Public bug reported: To see the fault:- Use sony vaio PCG-R600HMPD with intel graphics chipset i830. Run kubunt edgy 6.10 set vga=773 in grub menu.lst (two places as in latest edgy) the text when X is running is randomly coloured as are some parts of pictures. the effect is very noticable. workarounds:- 1/ log out of the session then log back in again - The text and graphics are OK. 2/ take out the command vga= in boot/grub/menu.lst. The splash screen is then black, but the text is OK when X runs.
