I have Acer Aspire 5021 Wlmi, res: 1280x800, Ati radeon x700, the same problem. I cannot boot the live cd so I cannot install ubuntu. I tried that above (but a bit different), I did reconfigure --> ati --> horizsync, vertsync, res: 1280x800. Then startx. Then it said that one panel (panel 0) is already running (the one that crashed on ctrl+alt+f7) and that I could delete the /tmp/.X0-lock and then try to startx again if the panel is not running. When I delete it and startx, it manages to bring x up and then I get a message (in gui, so nice resolution and all) that it will shut down because some other panel is already running (of course). The point is that it got in x with 1280x800 running. I will download now the alternate disc and try that. mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks in advance. btw any word of an ubuntu installation disc that works, :D -- [regression] 7.2 broke vesa: "No matching modes found" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89853 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
