Public bug reported: On wide-screen (15.4") laptops, when I set vga=0x314 option, I cannot see the virtual console, that is when I switch from X to the virtual console, I just get some messy colors. If I remove the splash and quiet options, I am not even able to see the boot messages.
I also tried setting acpi=off, but that did not help. This problem only appeared in Gutsy, it never appeared with Ubuntu since I was using Breezy. I tested on two HP Pavilion laptops, both have different graphics cards, one has an Intel card, the other has nVidia. Both are 15.4" wide-screen. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Virtual console not accessible when setting vga=0x314 option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138425 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
