Thanks for that page. I've now tracked the problem down to being
related with the integrated Geforce2 MX graphics card. I'm on Feisty
and in xorg.conf it was using the 'nv' driver which I can't seem to
get to give me the correct resolution. Installing nvidia-glx and
running nvidia-settings let me choose the correct resolution, however
the computer kept hang and the graphical display was very corrupted.
Found bug reports, it seems to be a regression between Edgy and
Feisty, right now I'm download Gutsy tribe 5 in the hope it's been
sorted.
