(Get the code!)
I have something abit more serious to report in this context; today, in #Ubuntu @ DALnet, I was asked why someone couldn't boot Feisty from the live-cd. I asked him to describe his problems, and he told me that as soon as X was about to start, it shut down. He was using a asrock K7VM3 motherboard with an onboard vga connected to a Sunstar monitor (FH 568).
He got thiese errors;
(EE) VESA(0) : No Maching modes
(EE) Screen(s) Found, but none have a usable configuration
Fatal Server error
no Screens found
Press any key to restart your system
I found thiese bugs and asked him to try and boot the system with the monitor disconnected, just for fun. That worked! (..and it _was_ fun for me) So, the assumption that this is just a cosmetic problem and nothing else, is clearly false.
