[ubuntu-uk] Fiesty wont work!!!!

[Pete Stean]

you certainly can:

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf (you might want to read up on nano first, I
find the commands a bit counter-intuitive)

you might also try changing the driver type from "vesa" to "nv"

I really would recommend burning a Gutsy Tribe 5 ISO though - you might find
you boot up into a graphical environment with no problems at all...
