When installing a standard Ubuntu 10.04 system on my system, I have to use i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa when beginning the installation. I tried doing the same for a command line installation so I could have a base system and install lxde later, it doesn't work, i.e. if I don't use i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa, after booting, it just shows a blank screen. I get the same with a command line system plus lxde, i.e. a blank screen.



So my question is, where do I have to enter i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa after installing a command line install plus lxde?

If you are doing a minimal install, you will need to install the X packages yourself prior to installing the desktop of your choice.



Thus, the key packages are xorg, xserver-xorg-core together with the video driver of your choice.



If you are just testing, my suggestion would be to install xserver-xorg-input-all for all the possible input devices together with xserver-xorg-video-all for all the open-source video-drivers.



Install these packages first, together with the GRUB entries quiet i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa to allow the GUI to display correctly.
