I'm installing Intrepid on a Dell Dimension 512MB RAM and an onboard Intel 91X chipset graphics card. I can run the live CD, but only in safe graphics mode. If I try normal gaphics mode, I get 1024x something strange, I get an orange screen, then it goes black, and there's a cursor there but it won't do antything but move. If I install, I get the background screen like Xserver is running all the way through the install, nice resolution and everything. As soon as it reboots, same story as with the live CD. I figured it was my monitor as it has prevented Xserver from starting on other distros because it's off brand, but I went to edit the xorg.conf file and it's basically a blank. Everything is generic. I'm stumped and I'd REALLY like to run Ubuntu. It works on other systems I've tried. In fact, I'm typing from one I'm running a live CD on now... Any one?
