Comment 8 for bug 103530

I continue to have this problem with the new ubuntu 7.04.....however this issue does not exist in xubuntu 7.04. I was able to boot the live CD and do a complete install using xubuntu 7.04, however I was not able to complete the boot process Live CD ubuntu 7.04 on any computer. I am not talking about a display problem here, this is booting errors, bad blocks, buffer errors, etc, but CD works just fine in VMware as well as upgrade process. I completed my tests on several different computers and found the following work around: when the flat panel monitor switches off due to the signal range error, simply connect a crt to get the display output working, then re-connect the flat panel display to complete the install. once installed, reboot computer, and display will once again switch off at gdm launch, again , re-connect crt display and on completion of boot and login, set a default display resolution in the display settings to prevent further display issues(This is the actual cure to my display problems). This worked every time I ran into the problem. I was not able to complete any boots on a number of my computers using ubuntu 7.04 due to errors loading the OS, however I was able to install ubuntu 7.04 in vmware just fine using the CD I burned. I was also able to upgrade ubuntu 6.10 to the new ubuntu 7.04 using the CD just fine and wow, it really is a great release !!! I wanted to give direct feed back on that! great job guys ! I will be happy to help in any way I can to resolve this display problem, I can duplicate it at will on several computers. but I have one basic problem, IDE based computers seem to have fewer boot issues, but the majority of my computers are SCSI based and many times the CD source cannot be found or errors prevent the completion of the boot process. once again, I am mearly raising the question that ubuntu 5.04, ubuntu 5.10 did not have the boot issues or the display issues. I have a burned cd of 6.04 as well as 6.06 LTS, I booted 6.04 just fine, but started having boot issues with 6.06LTS. I seem to be able to get around the problems now that I have discovered a work around with display, but the boot errors on the later releases on some computers I cannot get around. display issues are 90%, boot errors are 10%. my gut tells me that the problem is in xorg probing the FP display with some harmful settings and not receiving any response in return when it (the FP )switches off. however this does not explain why xubuntu 7.04 appears to boot properly without this display problem. same xorg version ?
