I tried another distro which ships packages which are compiled from almost vanilla sources: Arch Linux 2009. To my surprise X.Org X Server 1.5.3 seems to work flawlessly even without the "NoDDC" option. So this bug is probably due to a weird patch downstream.
The xorg.conf is generated by "X -configure", with no modifications. xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log can be found in upstream's bug report: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14048 -- [trident] xserver goes into infinate loop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
