strange problem with xubuntu Dapper on iMac G3 : no sound with beta, incorrect resolution with release

[Adam Miller]

You shouldn't need to reinstall and this issue could probably be fixed with
a conversation with a few community members in the irc channel #xubuntu on
irc.freenode.net, but if you prefer from here then please email me the
contents of the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf and we should be able to resolve the
screen resolution issue.
