Bug Description
Lenovo desktop model H415 does not see Viewsonic monitor VE710b except for text mode.
The APU is AMD A6-3600 CPU combined with AMD Radeon HD 6530D GPU.
The following test boots were made:
- Ubuntu 12.04 beta 28-feb-2012 i386
- Ubuntu 12.04 beta 14-mar-2012 i386
- Ubuntu 12.04 beta 19-mar-2012 AMD64
All three fail to get graphics mode from monitor with message NO SIGNAL.
The i386 boots proceed as follows:
- BIOS welcome screen from Lenovo
- white text flashes by in upper left corner, cannot read it
- keyboard = man drawing appears at bottom
- get NO SIGNAL from monitor
- boot continues but cannot see it
The AMD64 boot proceeds as follows:
- BIOS welcome screen from Lenovo
- in the upper left corner, you get the following white text: error: prefix is not set
- you then get GRUB screen version 1.99-17ubuntu1 with 3 options: try, install, check disc
- select either try or install
- get NO SIGNAL from monitor
- boot continues but cannot see it
On an old HP Pentium 4 with ATI Radeon 9200 physical card, this Viewsonic monitor is recognized with the i386 Ubuntu 12.04 beta from 28-feb-2012. The 2 others were not tested.
