I would like to add my voice to this. I have a SRX51P/B and the downloaded Gutsy install CD-ROM (the standard one) refuses to boot sensibly -- it appears to boot fine but as soon as anything associated with the display and Xorg is supposed to happen I just get a black screen. I forced a boot in safe mode (which gave me 640x480 screen) and did an installation but this led to only being able to use the machine in 800x600 mode which is just not acceptable.

I have given up on Gutsy completely, and reinstalled Feisty from my original install CD-ROM plus updating in the usual way. This works fine.

I'm afraid my report would be Feisty 9/10, Gutsy 0/10 -- Gutsy just is not up to scratch :-(

PS I think my Bug #157077 may effectively be a replica of this bug report.
