As i said in my earlier mail that these type of bug reports are mostly 
for laptops and almost all reports says if they connect an external 
monitor xserver starts well but in my case its a Desptop PC with a CRT 
monitor attached.

I even tried latest Ubuntu 9.04 but still the same result. I can only 
run it in low graphic mode. and the errors are same
