Bug Description

I have a Siemens Lifebook S6010 with an Intel 82830 Graphic Chipset. With Ubuntu 8.10 the screen is a mess. Installtion with the Live CD is impossible. The installation must be made with Alternate CD. With 8.04 I had the same problem but with the xorg.conf of Ubuntu 7.10 it was finally OK. But now, this workaround doesn't work anymore.

Please find included a zip file file containing: xorg.conf (the one I used with 8.04), Xorg.0.log, lshw, lshw -short, lspci, lspci -vvnn

I have the same problem with the Fujitsu Siemens S6010. It currently works fine with Kubuntu 8.04 (and the i810 driver), but I can't upgrade anymore.
I just tried the jaunty alpha 4 live CD, but can't get a graphical display with it. Failsave doesn't work too.

Hi frederic-lefaucheur-gmail,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/)

If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
Thanks in advance.
