Rolla, sorry yes that's correct. albert, thanks for the confirm! Actually I think if we're confident ddcprobe will catch it for this case, we should rely only on that. My patch could have side effects on other hardware, and so if we don't think we need it, we should leave it out and avoid those effects. We can always add it later if needed.
One thing I've wondered is other laptops with different gfx chipsets may be experiencing problems like these (but with different symptoms.) So, it'd be good to keep an eye out for any bugs that are occurring for non- intel laptops doing the alternate text install and appearing late in the install process; we could expand this patch to include those cases as well. Anyway, I've posted the source package for upload here, will shoot for getting it out tomorrow: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Uploads/ -- 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
