>      * Intel DG95WH motherboard
>      * Prolink ADD-7315-DVI-T sDVO/ADD2-N PCI Express x16 card with

>      * Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy" 64-bit
>      * Kernel 2.6.24 from Ubuntu
>      * X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90 - Release Date: 5 September 2007 - Build

>      * The TV is connected using HDMI to the computer. Nothing else,

>Symptoms: I have some text stuff displayed durung boot and shut-down, I have X and the applications started, but I have a black screen.
