Koen,

Unfortunately, I do not have that monitor any longer. But it did seem at
the time that the issue was specifically related to that screen
resolution of 1440x900 as the only thing that changed is the monitor it
self and the fact that is has a higher resolution of 1680x1050. I did
try F4 to change the resolution but 1440x900 is not an option on that
menu.

Also, it was not just ubuntu I was having problems with but kubuntu,
mandriva, and fedora as well; they all had the blank screen. Once I
changed monitors, all of the live cd's I tried booted just fine.

If there is anything else I can do just let me know!
