Bug Description
VAIO VGN-FS215E
CPU intel celeron M370 1.50 GHz
Graphics Intel 915GM with up to 128 MB
RAM 2x256 MB
WLAN 802.11 b/g
SCREEN 15.4 WXGA X-black LCD
Optical Double layer DVD+-RW
French keyboard
During the installation, just before the screen resolution step, my screen goes black with 2 fixed white rectangles on it.
From there the install carries on if I hit enter to accept the default screen resolution (I do it blind as at that stage my screen is black..)
Then the screen stays black until the end. So when it comes to grub install (have windows on the laptop as well) I have to type things blindly as well.
After numerous tries and errors, I managed to install it correctly. You will find logs attached.
To reproduce:
using the same vaio as mine I guess at anytime, using either edubuntu / ubuntu install cd/dvd
/var/log/ installer/ syslog
