When I want to set the screen resolution to 1024x768, the computer seizes. It first goes to a black screen and then I get a screen which is set to the new resolution. I get a screen without panels but everything else is frozen including the mouse.  I first did an upgrade from kubuntu 8.04 to 8.10. Here I noticed the problem. In 8.04 I had no problem with adjusting the resolution. After this I made a fresh install of 8.10. Here I encountered the same problem. To find out if my video card was faulty, I tried other ones. 2 with 128mb of memory and one of 256mb memory. With all I encountered the same problem. The only way to be able to use the computer again was by shutting it down the hard way and restarting it. What I als noticed is when the computer seized up and I restarted it. The computer seizes up immediately, without getting a chance to change the resolution. While restarting it I also see the last screen (crashed) when I get the flash screen and it goes to the fourth symbol (desktop).
I am using kubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386
I hope you can help me as the new version of kubuntu looks good
