[SOLVED]Kubuntu 9.04 display problem

[momomo]

Hi. I'm trying to install Kubuntu 9.04 using Wubi. Installation finishes successfully, but when I reboot and select Kubuntu it shows blue progress bar and then my HDTV (I use it as a display) says "Signal is not supported. Check your PC settings." My TV max resolution is 1360x768 60Hz. I think the problem is that Kubuntu sets higher resolution. I don't have another monitor. Tell me what to do, please!

Mmm, I have never used Wubi. Do you see an option to boot in rescue mode? You could try that, and when the boot completes select the option to repair graphics. That might help ...

Another thing would be to boot off a Kubuntu LiveCD and see if it works fine with your hardware. What graphics card do you use?

What graphics card do you use?

Nvidia GeForce 8600GT

You may be having an issue with the display driver, please try my suggestions. Other ways to have both windows include traditional dual boot (repartitioning your drive at install time), and running off of an sdhc card or usb drive. These last two are slower, particularly the usb-drive.

Thanks for help. I pressed Esc before boot and selected Safe Graphics Mode. It booted and finished installation. Then after reboot it loaded without problems
