Now I have Gutsy Gibbon: No problem with the new kernel. This fault is solved i guess.

But:
===

1. I can only start Ubuntu in the safed mode with the 1280x1024 resolution. And:

2. No chance to get this resolution in the other modes (and the text-mode, trivial): In the x-client and the gnome mode i can´t use this resolution. I can work only in the vesa 800x600 mode. And the mga mil. AGP 450 Dualhead graphic card won´t acceppt.

I guess i have a suspicion. My computer has a motherboard with the intel 815 chipset and an onboard-graphic-unit which i normally ignore. This is a second graphic card, a vga card! In my opinion the x server is strangely confused by the second onboard-card, which i forgot, until the system normally tries to go in the vga mode and ignores my AGP graphic card.

I wished this information would help to solve the puzzle.

Best regards
