Comment 0 for bug 164980

I've opened a new bug report also if there are others already opened because I think this is really critical and needs a fix.
When I try to install both Ubuntu 7.10 64 and 32 bit on my Intel Pentium D 3,40 Ghz, ATI Radeon X1550PRO (PCI-express) it stops at "Running local boot scripts"...
This is what I see:

* Starting deferred execution scheduler atd [OK]
* Starting periodic command scheduler crond [OK]
* Checking battery state... [OK]
* Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) [OK]
_

...and it gets stuck!

This is the problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2565564&postcount=8

I tried to login and type "startx" but the monitor reported "Bad synchronization"; I tried to change the monitor with another and it said "frequency not supported"

I hope you'll fix this as soon as possibile

P.S.: It seems to be affected all version of Ubuntu (Xubuntu, Edubuntu, Kubuntu) also of the 7.04 version
