Hi Everyone,
I have encountered some graphical problems when I made the upgrade to 9.10 from my previous installation of 9.04.
On boot up my Laptop (HP Pavillion Dv9605ea) shows the following error.
Usplash: setting mode 1280X1024 failed
Usplash: setting mode 1152X864 failed
Usplash: using mode 1024X768
I have the Nvidia 7150M Integrated Graphics Card
The main issue is that throughout boot up there is a graphical error which causes green moving shapes to appear on the screen, the screen is also off centre and does not display properly. Once fully booted up the screen returns to normal, however the green shapes appear in all of my photos and video files.
When i first installed Ubuntu I had issues with my screen. I think xorg didnt know the correct resolution or something. I was eventually able to get it to work on a fairly low resolution. The graphical errors do not seem the same, but i guess it could be related.
Please see below a copy of my xorg.conf file.
I would be really grateful for any advice or guidance anyone could give me to help get this sorted.
