Title:
xorg.conf changed on start of lightdm service
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After upgrading from 15.10 (Wily) to 16.04 (Xenial), X wont start. It
appears that my xorg.conf is modified such that I get a non-working
way (I get a coredump in the video driver I think). I have a Thinkpad
T530 with dual video cards, so I change the from the nvidia that is
somewere(?) auto selected back to intel. Alas, restarting of lightdm
service does not work: xorg.conf is re-modified. Manually starting a X
session with 'startx' (after correcting xorg.conf) works as expected.
Alas, nobody logs about this; that would have helped me find the
culprit..
Who modifies my xorg.conf? Why? This never happened before, and should
IMHO not be done.
Temporary solution: 'chattr +i /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. This makes auto-
changing impossible. But this is a hack. I should be allowed to change
my system such that it works the way I want.
