Bug Description
I have upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy. After upgrade, my graphic card was not properly recognised, and resolution fell back to 800x600 (yuck) instead of the expected 1440x900 (to match my LCD display).
It used to work find with Feisty so it's a regression in Gutsy.
I had to disable "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver" in the restricted driver manager to make it work, and when restarting, resolution is then OK (1440x900).
However, without using the proprietary driver, there is no 3D acceleration, and desktop effect is not allowed.
I have a laptop HP Pavilion dv9000, with nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce Go 7600] (rev a1) graphic card.
