urgent+ubuntu 8.04 desktop+post installation trouble

[Donny George]

hello Aart

thanks for the mail

i reconfigured the xscreen then did the normal boot but the problem still
persists.

the installation from the live cd happened without any problem, everything
just went well.

how do i possibly find the hardware now. i saw the option to go to text mode
once i logged into the recovery mode. wat would be the command to display
the hardware page by page. is it something like lspci ?
