Comment 32 for bug 186103

Please see my comments in bug #296142 regarding my earlier installation of the openchrome driver (in both ubuntu and debian).

Also, I tried the live CD for Karmic Koala 9.10, and the only real problem with display is that it also chooses a too-high resolution for the screen, so that only the upper left 1024x768 corner of the screen shows. This is the same as in 9.04

For Ubuntu and Xubuntu, the menu for changing the screen resolution is accessible. For Kubuntu, the KDE menus are off the screen. It's possible by right-clicking the background to create a panel at the top of the screen, then to add a system menu to that, but that's not too convenient! Also it's possible to switch to a text console, then create or edit an xorg.conf file, for all 3 Ubuntu versions. But for the average user, those solutions are increasingly difficult.
