Ubuntu 9.04 did not go past the flickering screen during installation. So I never installed 9.04. That is this bug i.e. installation media of 9.04, downloaded from Ubuntu website does not detect the display and ends up in a test pattern in NC20.
Now about 8.04: It installed just fine. It automatically detected display and automatically installed openchrome that came with the installation ISO image. Looked like the fonts were not very smooth though. So I downloaded and installed openchrome from trunk(latest version) and made changes to xorg.conf as suggested by someone responding to this bug. It works ok except that when the screen saver starts the screen goes black/dark and I am not able to bring it back by pressing any key. I can see a shadow of that window asking a password. Giving a password also did not help. This could be another bug which I found yesterday after installing latest openchrome. I am using this system now. -- Samsung NC20 installation problem(test pattern on screen) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374090 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
