Comment on IE7 content disappears by Karen

Thank you so much! The first solution did the trick for me.

I thought for sure IE6 would have been the trouble maker but… hey! It’s IE!

Also, another good tool for testing browsers is Adobe’s Browserlabs… http://www.browserlab.adobe.com A lot faster and more sophisticated than Browsershots

Thanks again!

Maybe they should just consider tearing down the gas stations and building hollow glass skyscrapers?!?

Just installed Safari 4 public beta on the same T60p laptop. Same test gave an average of 312,10. Never thought much of Safari on Windows – wonder if a plug-in-community similar to Firefox’es could emerge under Safari..

@Reuben: A few steps to remedy:

1) Install the nano editor if it is not already installed:

#sudo apt-get install nano

2) edit the xorg.conf file and verify or remove/comment out the modeline again

3) reboot or restart X

It is vital that your modeline follows the specifications of your monitor and your display adapter.

I tried using the steps you provided but when I rebooted Ubuntu. I got a x11 crash. Now I have no GUI what so ever. The read out said that the command “Modeline” was unknown. Is there something I’m missing in your instructions? Because as of right now I am missing my GUI for Ubuntu entirely. Any help from anyone would be great.

In a regular Ubuntu setup you should be able to sudo to edit the file:

$ sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Just supply your own password when requested

Help!
I can’t edit xorg.conf as I keep running into permission problems which I seem unable to resolve. How do I log on as Root when I don’t know the password??
