I believe this is a duplicate of bug #475259 and am marking it as such. What is slim? There doesn't appear to be a package of that name in Ubuntu. Does slim start an X server? If so, why does slim work but gdm fails (resulting in trying to load the vesa X server, which will trash the KMS console)? Can you provide a copy of /var/log/Xorg.0.log from a successful start after gdm has been downgraded? ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 475259 KMS doesn't play nice with vesa X driver -- Cannot start X after today Karmic upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/476874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
