Thanks for that suggestion. Unfortunately, I have already tried it. The result is my monitor gives the message "Input signal out of range - change setting to 1280 x 1024 - 60Hz" and goes to sleep. So I don't know if it boots or not, but if it does boot, I cannot see anything to log in.

For the record, my PC is a HP Pavilion i3510uk desktop with ATI Radeon Xpress 200 graphics and an HPvs17x monitor.

Perhaps there is a workaround. After all, I can boot Lucid off a USB stick. I can do stuff because I can get into console session (CLI only) using an old kernel. Kernels

2.6.32-22
2.6.32-21
2.6.31-21

don't boot at all (not even in recovery mode)

2.6.27.11

boots in normal mode to a login, but there is no functioning mouse or keyboard. In recovery mode, I can get a root command line and a user login command line.
