Difference (from prior major revision) (minor diff, author diff)

Changed: 276c276
There is a problem that seems to be common with the Intel D510MO board and Ubuntu 9.10. Upon boot up the default intel video driver that is suppose to be compatible with the GMA 3150 onboard graphics malfunctions. The intel driver is suppose to communicate with the connected screen and find the available resolutions and refresh rate. But the driver fails and the result is the "cannot load the i810 module" error.

Restart the computer with a power off-on restart. (Just a restart will not work) The computer will now startup using the vesa driver at the frequencies specified instead of trying to derive the video settings by communicating with the monitor. Ubuntu 9.10 and apparently also 10.4 have some issues with properly identifying the video settings possible when running on Intel IGP boards. Creating and setting this xorg.conf file basically overrides the automatic identification process and shortcuts the problem.

(Although this configuration is running on a D510MO board with Ubuntu 10.4 without these video issues) Creating and setting this xorg.conf file basically overrides the automatic identification process and shortcuts the problem.
