Back on Gutsy ;-) ...

Started again from the "beginning" : my Gutsy partimage, with messy video, just from Feisty upgrade.
Before booting on this Gutsy :
- saved the xorg.conf as ... initial
- modified xorg.conf to add BusType PCI, and remove 2 lines for HorizSync & VertRefresh

Boot on Gutsy : video in 800*600, impossible to modify during setting or under normal session (I probably succeeded at that point in changing the monitor as Hyunday 17")
Change to driver "dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.6.3-2ubuntu6_i386.deb" that I finally found, instead of the 6.7.195 version. No change in user session, still 800*600. May be changed to 17" Hyundai at that point (or previously ?).
Reboot : Gutsy is OK ! 1280*1024 / 60 Hz . Hyundai DeLuxe17" (instead of L70s as before), 6.6.3 driver in Synaptic

I will now perform a partimage from this Gutsy, in case of ...

Anything else (like the "dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" ... or 6.7.195 driver) ?
