Jaunty does not recognize VGA cotroller

[MikeR]

On a Digital HiNote laptop (yes, I know it's old)
Booting 9.04 _always_ limits to "low-graphics mode"
I have tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as advised elswere, with no joy.

results of sudo lshw -C display taken after reverting to 8.04:

I have had to revert to Hardy. What do I do when Hardy support ends?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.
There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test the current Ubuntu development version (10.10). If you can test it, and it is still an issue, we would appreciate if you could upload updated logs by running apport-collect <bug #>, and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

The particular HiNote has given up the ghost (I did say it was old)
So I have nowhere to test this particular bug;
I guess it should be closed/erased/eliminated due to lack of public interest
