Bug Description

I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo La 1703 latop with VIA vn896 vga and 1280:800 screen. I can't install the final version of Gutsy because the display server can't start not even in safe mode or with vga=771.

The installation went well with Gutsy Tribe 5!

Seems like this bug has been fixed because Hardy Alpha 3 starts with no problem. The resolution is almost correct, the screen displays the proper 1280x800 resolution but real resolution is somewhat bigger because some parts of the desktop doesn't fit in. The resolution cannot be changed during the live session. Let's wait for the Final version of Hardy.

I just filed bug 182778 about the broken resolution.

As the original poster said, this isn't broken the same way any more with Hardy Alpha 3.

The new wrong-resolution-problem is bug 182778.
