[Bug 252363] Re: geode driver's crash symbio sym1110 devices on Hardy 64-bit with (32-bit LTSP chroot)

[Stéphane Graber]

8.04 is no longer supported for desktop installs.

Can you try with 10.04 which is that last Ubuntu release supporting your
hardware?

Title:
  geode driver's crash symbio sym1110 devices on Hardy 64-bit with
  (32-bit LTSP chroot)

Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Symbio sym1110 low-power clients have worked well with LTSP under
  Ubuntu-Feisty and Gutsy. However under Hardy, the new geode display
  drivers crash the devices. They boot, then eventually display blue
  horizontal lines, followed by a completely distorted display.  If you
  try to type at the keyboard- they immediately Segmentation Fault.

  The only way the sym1110's seem to work with Hardy is to set them to
  VESA in lts.conf.  This offers extremely poor video performance and
  represents a real step backward in using these devices.

  I have tested this on clean installs of both 8.04 and 8.04.1- AMD 64
  with 32-bit ltsp environment.
