Comment 7 for bug 549447

This is affecting me too (on an HP tx1000 series, new install of Lucid on a new HDD). I have no real idea about these things, but am wondering if it is some kind of configuration which needs to be written. For instance if whatever tells it how to work thinks that the screen is 0 x 0 pixels because it has not been told otherwise. That, presumably would send it to the top left hand corner?

I think this adds weight to the need for a calibration programme, like there was in an earlier version of Ubuntu (Gutsy?).

If one of you clever people can come up with a little how-to for the thick but brave (or stupid!) like me, that would be awesome!

Thanks, and keep up the good work!
