Bug Description
I've done a clean install of Kubuntu (Gutsy RC for x86) with two extra display controllers installed. When the install is finished and the system reboots, no graphical mode is available -- only a command line login is available. Even the command line is not useable as the resolution is wrong so that the letters are so large that they run off the screen to the right and to the bottom.
In short the system is not useable as a workstation.
