Comment (by tonestone57):
You cannot compare Haiku's VESA driver to another OS (ie: Kubuntu).
Kubuntu drivers are coded differently and may work. Haiku's VESA driver
was coded a certain way which is not finding the phy values for your i815
graphics card.
phy should not be 0 for all of your VESA modes! VESA modes that have
phy=0 will not work!
You will have to wait for Axel to look into this ticket. Short term
workaround, use a different video card (many are supported by VESA driver)
and Haiku should then boot for you. Look for cards that have VESA 2 or
VESA 3 video BIOSes. PCI & AGP cards should work.
If this bug is easy to fix then it will get done quick but if hard to find
why phy is not found (set to 0) for i815 VESA modes then can be long time
to get fixed.
