Hi Bryce,

I downloaded the 12/3/08 Jaunty live CD and tried to run an install as well
as the live CD. With the Live CD, the GUI tries to boot up but the screen
settings seem to be incorrect and all I get are ghosting and blinking lines
on the screen. When I try to dump out to a terminal with Ctl-Alt-F1 etc, I
get a different set of ghosted lines, but no command line. When I try to
go back to GUI with ctl-alt-F6 It does a screen refresh but still does not
have a workable screen view.

I did the "install" option on the live CD and the end result was a command
line. I got the LSPCI output you requested, as well as the Xorg.0.log.
I've attached these to this email.

I'm running Ubuntu 6.06 (downloaded 6/12/06) on the same laptop without
trouble. The intel drivers work in that version. They started to change
after that.

Thanks.
Marc
