In reply to: upgrading 1.2 -> 1.5, comments not displayingFor those of you searching for a solution to this problem, I’ve solved it, although not in a manner that I’d have liked to.
Here’s two possible solutions:
1) use a comments.php from Kubrick or the Classic theme, possibly modify it after to your liking and style.
2) use comments.php from Kubrick/Classic to go through line-by-line your old comments.php, giving it the new functions and such.
3) rebuild old comments.php using the Codex.The problem is, 1.5 comments.php is SIGNIFICANTLY different from the 1.2 wp-comments.php. The guide says to simply rename wp-comments.php to comments.php; this is very wrong, and should be changed, at least to warn the user that they must pretty much redo comments.php.

In reply to: upgrading 1.2 -> 1.5, comments not displayingIt’s sloppy of wordpress.org to release a new version and claim that templates can be upgraded, when they really can’t, not completely. I’ve searched the forums and have found many others having comments problems, also unresolved.
It seems the only solution is to redo the entire comments.php following the new 1.5 functions. The guide on upgrading templates from 1.2 to 1.5 simply says to rename wp-comments.php to comments.php and stick it in the individual theme folder, which I have done, yet it still does not work.
