During installation: chroot target, then laptop-detect returns nothing laptop-detect -v returns: we're a laptop (dmidecode returns notebook)
I tested the patch for bug 144956. The colored blocks still appear. However, after reboot my laptop came up with 1280x800 as it should. Previously it came up with 1024x768. (I rebuilt the patch for amd64 and customized the beta CD) After installation and with debug enabled, xresprobe still shows it probes X. Same output as above, except for the now correct resolution of 1280x800. I guess if the ddc probe in xresprobe would find the right resolution for my laptop, the x probe would not be needed and the problem would be solved. I am not sure if the ddc probe in xresprobe is the same as ddcprobe, but this is what sudo ddcprobe gives (after 1st reboot): vbe: VESA 3.0 detected. oem: Intel(r)Crestline Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS vendor: Intel Corporation product: Intel(r)Crestline Graphics Controller Hardware Version 0.0 memory: 7616kb mode: 1280x1024x256 mode: 1280x1024x64k mode: 1280x1024x16m mode: 1024x768x256 mode: 1024x768x64k mode: 1024x768x16m mode: 640x480x16m mode: 800x600x64k mode: 800x600x16m mode: 640x480x256 mode: 800x600x256 mode: 640x480x64k edid: edid: 1 3 id: db00 eisa: LPLdb00 serial: 00000000 manufacture: 0 2006 input: analog signal. screensize: 33 21 gamma: 2.200000 dpms: RGB, no active off, no suspend, no standby dtiming: [EMAIL PROTECTED] monitorid: LGPhilipsLCD monitorid: LP154WX4-TLC -- Alternate install of Tribe-4 corrupts video display when installing packages (affected hardware includes Santa Rosa) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127008 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
