I will try the things you say as soon as I can (I have recently changed my monitor, so I'll have to plug the old one). But I would like to tell you a couple of things that may be of interest:
- I don't use a Vaio laptop, but a generic desktop PC with a cheap generic Radeon 9250 card and a cheap generic TFT Monitor.
- On the same machine that fails Kubuntu Hardy, Ubuntu Hardy works perfectly, and the screen resolution is properly set to 1280x1024 by default. Actually, I think Kubuntu also sets the resolution OK, but the desktop is unusable.
Maybe the bug I am experiencing is different from the one reported by Steve. But I will try what you say, and send you the info.
