The problem is that Ubuntu starts with the color depth to 24-bits per pixel, which is not supported by Virtual PC 2004 and Virtual PC 2007, therefore some manual steps need to be taken before being able to install and configure Ubuntu in Virtual PC. I have tried several things like changing the boot options by including VGA=771 and the steps outlined in the Community Docs for "How to - Configure Ubuntu for Microsoft Virtual PC". The problem is that when I choose to start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode the graphics are still messed up and when I choose the option "Start or Install Ubuntu" for some reason it does not fully boot.
Is there anybody out there that managed in installing Kubuntu 6.10 in Virtual PC 2007? Also, why is there still no support for a color depth of at least 24-bits per pixel in VPC 2007?
