Ubuntu 9.04 did not go past the flickering screen during
installation. So I never installed 9.04. That is this bug i.e.
installation media of 9.04, downloaded from Ubuntu website does
not detect the display and ends up in a test pattern in NC20.

Now about 8.04: It installed just fine. It automatically detected
display and automatically installed openchrome that came with
the installation ISO image. Looked like the fonts were not very
smooth though. So I downloaded and installed openchrome from
trunk(latest version) and made changes to xorg.conf as suggested
by someone responding to this bug. It works ok except that when
the screen saver starts the screen goes black/dark and I am not
able to bring it back by pressing any key. I can see a shadow of
that window asking a password. Giving a password also did not
help. This could be another bug which I found yesterday after
installing latest openchrome. I am using this system now.
