Bug Description
Binary package hint: base-installer
gusty tribe 5 desktop live CD for amd64
initial screen with options to choose install, safe graphics mode etc. shows, but then then screen goes blank for awhile.
When X finally loads, the desktop shows up.
It's an Nvidia GeForce 8600GT 256MB card.
Dual monitor acer AL2016W (20 inch wide screens)
Only one of the monitors shows up, which should be another bug, but the new X gtk config stuff may fix this (we hope).
There are similar bugs, but they don't seem to be the same. Listed below are some of them.
