Bug Description
My PC works perfectly with Feisty and win XP. I started a graphical upgrade to Gutsy that was performed in 3h without problem. At reboot, grub was OK and so was the (splash ?) screen while Ubuntu starts (with the progress bar). Then my session started ... and the screen became messy : vertical sync was there, as I can "see" top and bottom menu bars (but not the icons), but horiz sync was not there : my background image, icons and all are mixed and video lines are running through the screen ...
When I boot from grub to windows, it's OK, win is there and my screen is perfect.
I tried in recovery session "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" : no enhancement.
I tried then to boot on Gutsy Livecd, using different screen resolutions (including 640*480 !) : same problem as soon as the session is started.
My video card is ATI RV280 Radeon 9200 SE
Flat screen is Hyundai L70S+ 1280*1024
I am now back on Feisty, using partimage file (after having done a Gutsy partimage).
Any idea of the problem, a solution ?
Thanks in advance
Denis
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please attach your X server configuration file (/etc/X11/ xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/ Xorg.0. log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the "Attachment:" box below.
