After splash the screen goes bonky

[Neuster]

So after ubuntu goes past the splash screen and the resolution changes the screen overlaps. I have probably 4 cursors, and there are horizontal lines, it's weird. XP works fine, so I'm assuming it's a xorg.conf issue or something along those lines. Or a resolution problem.

So how do I fix this?

C'mon, this is seriously annoying. I've been having to use Xp.


So a better description. After the splash screen it appears like the resolution is messed up, but i can't fix it.

There are horizontal lines, but they dont go all the way across. I have what appears to be 5 desktops, and they overlap. I have several mice, but only one works, so it's pretty confusing. **** this is hard to describe.

Please hit cntl+F1.

Login.

Then do the following command:

lspci | grep VGA

That should tell us what video card you have and allow us to help.
