  PROBLEM:  Boots past Ubuntu splash screen (100% bar), flashes through 4
  corrupt graphic screens, ending on one that displays something like the
  Ubuntu splash screen (100% bar) in the upper half left and right
  corners, something like the Ubuntu small icon logo repeated ~32 times

- BACKGROUND:  Recently reformatted system from Unbuntu Intrepid to Ubuntu
- Jaunty (original Canonical CD) where graphics became a bit slower [i've
- read the problems about ATI not keeping pace with X, but running without
- glitches.  Both versions had a habit of the touchpad buttons locking up
- for periods of time.  Jaunty started beeping a few times during
- shutdowns.
