Installing Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop

I restarted Fedora 13 and the weirdness related to the high resolution (which is apparently the default resolution for the login screen) was so annoying that I said screw it, it's back to Ubuntu (although a newer version). Here's the procedure I used to install it:

• Selected English as my language and clicked "Install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS"
• Region: United States Time Zone: Denver
• Keyboard Layout: USA
• Specify Partitions Manually
• Partition 1: 20480 MB, Primary Partition, Ext 4 FS, Mount point: /
• Partition 2: 1536 MB, Primary Partition, swap
• Partition 3: The rest of the space, Primary Partition, Ext 4 FS, Mount point: /media/data
• Name: Mike Linford Username: mike Computer name: mmldesktop Require my password to log in
• Install

Crap, 10.04 has the same video issue as Fedora 13...

Update: I did all the updates and installed the fglrx package and the weirdness as stopped. I'm not sure which of the two fixed it, but when I do lsmod it doesn't list the fglrx driver, just the free radeon driver, so it might have just been the updates. It's a pity updating fedora didn't help.

Additional Packages:

• flashplugin-installer: Flash plugin
• xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Proprietary video driver. Fixes the video problems.
